Tiny Yurts

If you're looking for a little time-killer between video meetings, or something that won't take up your precious storage space, browser games are the way to go. You don't need a high-powered gaming PC for these. There are so many great games to play directly in your browser that are entirely free and easy to run. They don't usually come with the flashiest visuals, but many of these browser games are just downright fun. We've gotten together a list of some of the best games you can play without waiting on a download.

We have plenty of online games that you can play in single or multiplayer mode including . They also work on your favorite mobile devices. Try them out on a laptop, a smartphone, or a tablet. There's something here for players of all ages so, no matter how old you are, you'll find something fun to play!

Connect the yurts to the farms!

Left-click and drag to place paths and re-orient your yurts. Right-click to delete path segments.

Heavily inspired by Mini Motorways by Dinosaur Polo Club. And by 13th century Mongolia!

Mobile is a little small and fiddly, but the 'Fullscreen' button puts it into landscape mode and is highly recommended.

Sounds are generated on-the-fly, so each guitar twang and path-placing thud is ever so slightly unique.

Graphics are all in SVG, the UI is mostly HTML, and there are a whole load of CSS transitions. There is no canvas!

Special thanks to Kang Seonghoon for RoadRoller (my asset-less source code is 191kB, which I think might be a Js13kGames record lol), Maxime Euzière for the Karplus-Strong algorithm that I sort of nabbed from his MiniSynth for the sound effects, and Steven Lambert for Kontra.js - the game is now using very little of it, but starting off with an engine was super helpful!

Also thank you to everyone who tried out the game over the last week or so, it's been great seeing your scores, screenshots, and yurt-organization strategies :)
