The games
Hangman Duel
Set each other a secret word and see who cracks theirs with fewer misses. Perfect for in-jokes and words only the two of you would think of.
Four in a Row
Quick, easy to learn and surprisingly tense. A game takes a few minutes, so it’s ideal for “best of five” before bed.
Dots & Boxes
Gentle to start, ruthless at the end. Take turns drawing lines, and watch one careless move hand over a whole row of boxes.
Mancala
A calm counting game with clever chains of extra turns. Good when you want something to think about, not shout about.
Checkers
The classic duel. Longer games, real strategy, and the satisfaction of a triple jump.

How to play together
Long distance? Start a room and send the link. You’ll both see the same board, take turns from your own phones, and can send a quick emoji reaction when a move stings.
On the sofa? Use “Play on one device” and pass the phone back and forth, or open the room on two phones and scan the QR code.
Making a night of it? Stay in the same room. Play a rematch, switch games whenever you like, and the room keeps score for the whole session.
Questions
- Can we play when we’re apart?

- Can we play on one phone?
- Yes. Choose “Play on one device” on any game and pass it back and forth. Games with secret words hide them until the next player is ready.

- No. There are no accounts and nothing to install. The games run in your browser.
- Is it free?
- Yes, every game is free to play.
- Does it keep score?
