Arcade Games
Quick, replayable, score-chasing games — a different pace from our usual brain puzzle rounds.
Bubble Shooter
Aim your launcher and fire colored bubbles up into the wall — bank shots off the side walls for tricky angles — and match 3 or more of the same color to pop them, with dangling bubbles falling away too. Watch for 💣 bombs that blast everything nearby and ⭐ Color Bursts that clear every bubble of one color at once. Miss too many times and a fresh row pushes the whole wall down toward the red line. Clear a wall and the game automatically moves you to the next level.
Number Shooter
Fire numbered tiles up into five columns and match equal numbers to merge them into double. Tiles touching an equal number above, beside or below merge, and merges can chain into big combos. Every few shots a new row of tiles drops from the ceiling, so keep every stack below the red danger line and chase a high score.
Tetris
Guide each falling tetromino into place to fill and clear complete rows before the stack reaches the top. Rotate with ↺ / ↻, flip a half-turn with 180°, move with ◀ / ▶, and soft- or hard-drop with ▼ / ⤓ — every on-screen button doubles as a keyboard key (Z/X to rotate, Shift or F to flip, arrows to move, Space to hard-drop), shown right on the button. Clearing several rows with one piece scores far more than clearing them one at a time, and the pace speeds up every level.
Pac-Man
Guide Pac-Man through the maze, clearing every dot while dodging four ghosts — Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. Grab one of the four flashing power pellets in the corners to turn the ghosts blue and hunt them for a few seconds, and use the side tunnel to slip from one wall straight out the other.
