Frequently asked questions

Are the games on DropIn Games Arcade free?

Yes. Every game is free to play in your browser, with no download, install or account needed.

How do I play multiplayer games with friends?

Open a multiplayer game such as Battleships, Sudoku Battle, Futoshiki Battle or Snap Grid, start a room, and share the room link. Anyone who opens the link joins the same game from their own browser.

Do I need to create an account or install anything?

No. The games run directly in your browser on desktop and mobile. Just open a game and play.

How many players can join a game?

It depends on the game. Sudoku Battle supports 2–12 players and Snap Grid supports 2–8, while Battleships and Dungeon Scramble are built for two or more.

Can I play on my phone?

The games are built to run in a mobile browser, though some single-player games use keyboard controls such as the arrow keys and Space, so they play best on a computer.
