Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started
Do I have to make an account or anything?
Nope! That's the whole point - just show up and start playing. No passwords to remember, no email confirmations, no 'verify you're human' nonsense. Just games, ready to go.
How do I actually play a game?
Super simple - see a game that looks cool? Click on it. See a big play button? Click that too. Game starts playing in your browser. That's literally it.
This is actually free? What's the catch?
Yeah, it's really free! We show some ads to keep the lights on, but you'll never hit a paywall or get locked out of games. Free means free here.
Will this work on my phone?
Absolutely! Whether you've got an iPhone, Android, tablet, or whatever - if it has a browser, it'll probably work great. We test everything on mobile because that's where a lot of gaming happens these days.
Do I need to install anything?
Nada. Zero downloads. Everything runs right in your browser, which is honestly pretty amazing when you think about it.
How often do you add new stuff?
New games drop every week! We're always hunting for cool new things to add, so bookmark us and check back when you want something fresh.
A game isn't working - what gives?
Annoying! Try refreshing the page first - that fixes most things. If you're using an ad blocker, try turning it off for our site. Still broken? Shoot us a message and we'll figure it out.
Can I save my favorite games somehow?
We're working on building that feature in! For now, just bookmark the game page in your browser or add it to your phone's home screen.
Is there a way to search for specific games?
Yep! There's a search bar at the top - type in whatever you're looking for and see what comes up.
Are these games okay for kids?
Most of our games are pretty family-friendly, but we'd still recommend parents check things out first, especially the multiplayer games where kids might interact with other players.
Can I play with friends?
Definitely! Check out our multiplayer and .io games - you can compete against friends or random people from around the world in real-time.
Do games remember my progress?
Some do, some don't - it depends on how the game was built. Most use your browser's storage, so if you clear your browser data, you might lose progress. Just a heads up!
Requests & Community
Can I request a game you don't have?
Please do! We love getting suggestions. Hit up our contact page and tell us what you want to see - we actually read those messages and add games people ask for.
Do you guys make your own games too?
We do! Some games are built by our team, others are awesome games we've discovered and want to share. It's a mix of both.
I made a game - can you add it to PiwiGames?
We'd love to check it out! Drop us a line through our contact page with the details and we'll take a look.
Any plans for other languages?
Working on it! We're starting with French, Spanish, and Arabic. Takes time to do it right, but it's definitely on our radar.
