Short answers to the things people ask most. If yours is not here, send a line.
Q1.Do I need to install anything?
No. Every game is a page on this site. Open it, press play, and it runs in the tab you are already in. Nothing is downloaded to your computer.
Q2.Is it really free?
Yes - every game is free to play, with no account, no trial and no paywall. The site pays its bills with ad space, and until an ad network is connected those spaces are clearly labelled placeholders that do not get in your way.
Q3.Do the games work on my phone?
They do. Touch controls appear where they help, the layout reflows to small screens, and the games that need a keyboard still show an on-screen one.
Q4.Where are my high scores kept?
In your browser, under a name only this site can read. That means your best score does not follow you to a different device or a different browser - and nobody else can see it either.
Q5.Can I play offline?
Not quite. The pages and their images are served by this site, so you need a connection to load a game. Once it is open it keeps running even if the connection drops for a moment.
Q6.Why does a game ask to pause when I switch tabs?
Games pause themselves when the tab goes to the background so you do not come back to a lost run. You can also pause any time with the button in the top bar, or the P and Escape keys.
Q7.How do favorites and history work?
Tap the heart on a game page to save it to your favorites. Every game you start is added to your recently played list, newest first. Both lists live in this browser only and can be cleared whenever you like.
Q8.A game is not working. What now?
Try a hard refresh first - it clears a half-loaded page. If it still misbehaves, tell us at hello@freebrowsergames.io with the game name and what happened, and it gets fixed.
Q9.Can I use these games on my own site or stream?
The games are made for this site. Ask first at hello@freebrowsergames.io and we will work something out. Either way, the games themselves stay credited to their owners.
Q10.Do you set cookies?
No. This site sets no cookies of its own, and there is no consent banner to click through because there is nothing to consent to. If an ad network is ever connected it will follow the same rule and tell you before anything changes.
