Why these games are different

Most "free" game sites fund themselves with ads, coins, energy timers, or a paywall on the good bot levels. These games have none of that — every difficulty level, every analysis tool, and every multiplayer room is free, with nothing to install and no account to make. Games with dice or cards use provably fair randomness: the shuffle or roll is committed before you play, so you can verify nothing was rigged. To play with a friend, open any multiplayer game and share the four-letter room code.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account to play?

No. There is no signup, no email and nothing to install — every game runs in your browser as soon as the page loads. There are also no ads, no coins, no energy timers and no paywall on the harder bot levels: every difficulty, every analysis tool and every multiplayer room is free.

How do I play with a friend?

Open any multiplayer game and share the four-letter room code it gives you. Your friend opens the same game and enters that code, and you are in the same room. Neither of you needs an account, an invite or an app.

How do I know the dice and shuffles are not rigged?

Because you can check them yourself. Before the first move the game publishes a SHA-256 hash of its server seed, and when the game ends it reveals the seed. Roll i is derived from SHA-256(server : client : i : counter), and each byte becomes a die with (byte mod 6) + 1 — bytes 252 to 255 are discarded, because 256 is not divisible by 6 and keeping them would make low faces slightly more likely. Because the seed is committed before you play, the dice cannot depend on the score, the board, or how well you are doing. Paste the receipt into the dice verifier and it recomputes every roll from scratch; if a single die had been changed, the check fails. Our SHA-256 is plain readable JavaScript, checked against the vectors published in NIST's FIPS 180-4 so you can confirm it is the real thing.
