About Pocket Arcade
Pocket Arcade is a small, curated arcade of original 2D games that run directly in your web browser. It is not a portal that collects games from elsewhere: every game here is designed and built for this site by its independent developer.
What you can expect
- Instant play — no account, no download and no payment.
- Controls that work on phones (touch) and computers (keyboard and mouse).
- Personal bests, favorites and recently played games saved only in your own browser.
- No ads at the moment.
