Small games deserve to be found.

ArcadeWorld brings together independent browser games, game-jam projects, playful experiments and AI games. The web is full of tiny teams and solo creators making something unusual. We help their work find a curious audience.

Browse by genre, explore the latest additions, or follow a game that catches your eye. Each listing introduces the idea, explains how to get started and links to the creator's original site. Third-party games live with their creators.

A small set of games is made for and hosted by ArcadeWorld. You can play those directly here, while every other listing continues to send you to its creator's official site.

Where AI fits

Some games use AI during play, for example to continue a story or respond to an answer. Others were made with help from AI tools. Our AI games section keeps those two uses distinct and links to the creator's own explanation. One game can belong to both groups.

What goes into a listing

We check the official source, creator details, available licence information and whether a game fits the directory. Descriptions focus on the game's idea and how to begin. Unknown licence details are marked as not declared; a listing does not grant permission to copy a game.
