Games Fair is a free, open-source collection of classic puzzle and arcade games, in one app that never asks you for anything. SOLITAIRE Klondike, turning one card at a time or three. With Winnable Deals Only on, a solver plays every deal through to a win before it reaches the table, and Hint shows a move on the way. Once every card is face up, the rest fly home by themselves. BLOCK BLAST Drag pieces onto the board and fill rows and columns to clear them. Clear on back-to-back moves for a combo, or empty the whole board for a 5,000-point bonus. BREAKOUT Clear the bricks. Power-ups widen the paddle, slow the ball, or let it smash straight through. Levels get faster. FALLING BLOCKS The one you already know how to play. Lines clear, the level climbs, the pieces come quicker. SUDOKU Puzzles at several difficulties, with the number pad where your thumb already is. 2048 Slide the tiles, watch them merge, chase your best score. Reaching 2048 is not the end if you do not want it to be. CHARADES Hold the phone to your forehead while your friends give clues, nod when you guess right, and tip your head back to pass. Decks run from animals and movies to sayings and things to act out, and the screen stays on for the whole round. MINES The classic sweeper. Your first tap is always safe, holding a square plants a flag, and a number with all its flags opens the rest around it. Three board sizes, each shaped to fit your screen. LANGUAGES Menus, instructions and accessibility labels are in 13 languages. Charades has localized animal and food decks in each of them, and twenty-one themed decks in English. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO No advertising. No purchases. No account. No network access at all — every game runs entirely on your device. Your progress is saved when you leave a game and restored when you come back, including if the phone puts the app to sleep mid-round. Games Fair is published by the App Fair Project and is free software under the GNU Affero General Public License, with an exception for distribution through the app stores. It is built with the Day framework: one Rust codebase drawing itself with each platform's real native widgets. github.com/Games-Fair/Games-Fair

Baba Is You is a groundbreaking puzzle game where the rules of the game are physical objects you can push around and rearrange. CHANGE THE RULES Each level contains word blocks that form rules — "BABA IS YOU" means you control Baba. "WALL IS STOP" means walls block your path. "FLAG IS WIN" means touching the flag wins the level. But what if you push the words and change the rules? THINK DIFFERENTLY The core mechanic is deceptively simple: push word blocks to form new sentences. But the implications are profound. Every level asks you to question your assumptions about how the game works. The solution is never what you first expect. HOW IT WORKS - Rules are formed by three word blocks in a row: NOUN + IS + PROPERTY - Push any word block to break an existing rule or create a new one - If you break "BABA IS YOU", you lose control — unless you make something else IS YOU - Combine rules creatively: make rocks pushable, walls passable, or turn the flag into you UNDO FREELY Every move can be undone. Experiment wildly, try the unexpected, and discover solutions through creative exploration. There's no penalty for trying — only the satisfaction of finding the answer. KEY FEATURES: • Unique rule-manipulation puzzle mechanic • Multiple handcrafted levels with increasing complexity • Unlimited undo for experimentation • Retro-inspired pixel art style • Full offline play — no internet required • Zero ads, zero in-app purchases • Supports iPhone • Think outside the box — literally
