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

CHRONOS II is a cyber thriller played entirely through a command line. Something escaped from a sealed archive. Now it is moving through the world's connected systems: a security camera, a bank network, the global phone system, a power grid, a nuclear facility, and a forgotten Cold War satellite. You are following it from machine to machine. But it is not running from you. It is leading you somewhere. CHRONOS II turns real events from the history of hacking and cyberwar into a series of interactive terminal puzzles. Explore simulated networks, inspect files, trace connections, uncover vulnerabilities, and work out what happened before the system moves on. Or before something inside it does. There are no conventional action sequences or point-and-click puzzles. Everything happens through the terminal. Type commands, study the responses, take notes, and learn how each system works well enough to break into it, or to keep it from breaking apart. Your deck keeps track of every machine you have reached, the tools and fragments you are carrying, and a live feed that changes as the story unfolds. An extended keyboard provides the keys a terminal needs, while built-in notes, command history, copy and paste keep the experience comfortable on a phone. Inspired by real cyber incidents, technologies, and moments in computing history, CHRONOS II is a work of fiction. Its systems and commands are carefully designed simulations, built to feel authentic without pretending to be real-world infrastructure. Features • Seven terminal-driven chapters • A story spanning decades of hacking and cyberwar • Simulated networks, machines, and command-line tools • Hidden discoveries, an optional detour, and four endings • Built-in notes and a terminal-focused keyboard • Fully playable offline • No account, advertisements, analytics, or tracking • Free, with nothing to buy You opened the door. It left you a trail for a reason.
