Six hundred kilometres an hour, a hand on each airbrake. The track banks under you and the wall is always one bad line away. Race the grid alone, or take a slot against whoever else is on it.
Buy from the plug, post up on a corner, sell to whoever walks over. Nobody dies here — you wake up in a clinic, and whoever put you there kept what you were carrying.
Thirty days, eight neighbourhoods, and a debt that grows whether you touch it or not. Ride the L, work the spread, stay ahead of the shark.
A whole 1997 desktop in your browser: dial-up messenger, a case file to work through, and a Start menu full of the games you remember.
The blocks fall the way they always have. Everything around them melts to a Dark Star Emperors soundtrack — the walls breathe with the bassline. Sober mode turns all of it off.
Match three, drop the rest. Mochi works the launcher while the ceiling grinds down, and the neon behind the board breathes along to five original tracks. Thirty-three boards to the last one.
Jerry is out of the wire and running for an airstrip. The screen moves on its own; all you do is shoot. Watch the brackets — when one shuts, he fires. Four stages, one way out.
Run right, shoot everything, and do not stop moving. Three stages of jungle, waterfall and foundry, each one ending with something much bigger than you are. Pick up what the pods drop — the rifle you start with is not going to be enough.
Seventy-eight cards painted for a neon city and read the way Papus read them in 1892. Cut the pack where your hand tells you, pick seven from the fan, and turn the spread over one card at a time. Every meaning comes straight from the book.
Gary has two hours at his daughter's ninth birthday and the brain of a fruit fly — all 165,122 neurons, firing live in your browser. You can't steer him. Throw a donut and he follows his nose; blow in his face and he grooms; spray cologne on the bouncy castle and he sings to it.
You are the contestant. Four shows, thirty-six studios, and a host who talks over every kill — the doors in all four walls open and whatever comes through is worth points. Shoot it, take the money, walk out the other side. Continues are free: the network would rather you died on camera than stopped.
Ten-pin, after dark, on a real lane — sixty feet of it, oiled at the front and dry at the back, so a ball with a hand on it slides straight and then bites and comes back across. The pocket is two boards wide, same as life. Up to four of you, on one sofa or four computers, and you can hear each other.
Topete Games is a collection of ten free browser games made by Topete. Every game runs in the browser tab you already have open — there is no download, no installer, no launcher and no account. Open a link and the game starts.
No. Nothing is installed and nothing is downloaded. Each game is a web page: the code loads when you open the link and runs entirely in your browser. Closing the tab is all it takes to stop.
Yes. All ten games are free to play, with no payment, no in-game purchases, no advertising and no sign-up. There is no paid tier.
No. There is no account system and no email is ever asked for. Progress and high scores are kept in your own browser's local storage, on your device, so they persist between visits but never leave your machine.
Nearly all of them. Every game except Divorced Dad Simulator is playable on a phone or tablet with touch controls. Iron Wolf and Mochi Pop are designed around touch as a first-class input, and the rest adapt their layout to a small screen. Divorced Dad Simulator runs a 165,122-neuron brain simulation in real time and needs a desktop or laptop.
Yes. Iron Wolf, Mochi Pop, Tetris Warp, Steel Rain and Divorced Dad Simulator support Xbox and PlayStation DualSense controllers through the browser's Gamepad API, including rumble where the pad supports it. Plug in or pair the controller and it is detected automatically.
Two are. ANTIGRAV lets you race other people on the same track in real time, and CHICAGO 2077 puts you on the street against whoever else is currently online. The other eight are single player.
Iron Wolf is an 8-bit light-gun shooter set during the Vietnam War. You play Jerry, escaping a prisoner-of-war camp and fighting through a jungle, a city and finally an airstrip. The screen scrolls on its own and you only shoot; a bracket closes around an enemy before he fires, so the game is about reading the screen rather than spraying it. It is played with a mouse, a touchscreen or a controller.
ANTIGRAV is a high-speed anti-gravity racing game rendered in WebGL. You race a hovering craft along banked neon tracks at around six hundred kilometres an hour, alone against the grid or against other players in real time.
CHICAGO 2077 is a multiplayer street-trading game drawn entirely in coloured text characters — a full ASCII cityscape. You buy from a supplier, hold down a corner and sell to whoever walks past, competing for ground with the other players online at the same time. Nobody dies: if you are jumped you wake up in a clinic, minus whatever you were carrying.
Tetris Warp is a falling-block puzzle game wrapped in an audio-reactive WebGL visualiser. It uses modern rules — SRS rotation with wall kicks, T-spins, a seven-bag randomiser and lock delay — and the whole scene melts and breathes along to its Dark Star Emperors soundtrack. A sober mode switches every effect off. It supports keyboard and controller.
Mochi Pop is a bubble-shooter puzzle game with a cute character, Mochi, working the launcher while the ceiling grinds down. It runs to thirty-three hand-built boards, with the backdrop and the pieces changing every few stages and five original tracks behind them. It supports mouse, touch and Xbox or PlayStation controllers.
Drug Wars: Chicago is a 16-bit turn-based trading game. You move between neighbourhoods buying low and selling high against a shifting market, managing cash, debt and risk over a fixed number of days.
Mason Hollow is a mystery game built as a simulated 1997 desktop computer. You investigate by opening applications, reading files and email, and playing the mini-games you find on the machine.
Steel Rain is a 16-bit run-and-gun shooter. You play a commando fighting through three stages — a jungle, a waterfall and a foundry — each ending in a boss far bigger than you. A single hit kills you, so the game is about where you stand: you aim in eight directions, go prone under fire, and shoot the pods that drift past for a spread gun, a machine gun, a laser or a flamethrower. It supports keyboard, touch and Xbox or PlayStation controllers.
Neon Arcana is a tarot deck and reader built on Papus's The Tarot of the Bohemians (1892). Its seventy-eight cards are painted for a neon city, and every meaning comes straight from the book: you choose one of Papus's methods, shuffle, cut the pack, draw from the fan and turn the spread over one card at a time. Sofia can then tell the story of the whole spread and read it aloud; that interpretation is written by an AI from Papus's meanings. It works on desktop and phone.
Divorced Dad Simulator is a comedy game with PlayStation-era graphics about Gary, a divorced dad whose brain is the complete wiring diagram of a male fruit fly: 165,122 neurons from the Janelia FlyEM connectome, simulated spike by spike in your browser with the open-source fly-brain model. You never control Gary directly. You throw donuts, swat at him, blow a leaf blower in his face or spray cologne on things, and his fly brain decides whether he walks, eats, grooms, leaps or sings. It needs a desktop or laptop, and supports mouse and Xbox or PlayStation controllers.
Yes, in your own browser. High scores, unlocked stages and settings are written to local storage on your device. Nothing is uploaded, so clearing your browser data or switching device starts you fresh.
The games contain no advertising, no chat with strangers, no purchases and no data collection. Iron Wolf, Steel Rain, Drug Wars: Chicago and CHICAGO 2077 have adult subject matter — military combat and street-dealing themes — so they suit older players. The racing and puzzle games suit any age.
