A strategy game played on a 3x3 grid where two players take turns marking X's and O's. The goal is to get three of your symbols in a row - horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. While the rules are simple, winning requires thinking ahead and blocking your opponent's moves. Fun fact: The game has been played since ancient Egypt, where it was called "Three in a Row."
Control a growing snake that moves around the screen eating food pellets. Each time your snake eats, it grows longer. The challenge is to avoid hitting the walls and your own tail as you get bigger.

The game became super popular in the 1990s when it came pre-installed on Nokia phones.
A brain-training game where cards are placed face-down in a grid. Players flip two cards at a time, trying to find matching pairs. If the cards match, they stay face-up. If not, they're flipped back over. The game tests your memory skills as you try to remember where different cards are located. It's great for improving concentration and visual memory.
A puzzle game where you uncover tiles on a grid while avoiding hidden mines. Numbers on revealed tiles tell you how many mines are in the surrounding eight squares.

Control a paddle at the bottom of the screen to bounce a ball upward, breaking blocks arranged at the top. Each block you break gives you points.

It teaches hand-eye coordination and quick reactions.
A quick decision-making game where players choose between three options: rock (closed fist), paper (flat hand), or scissors (two fingers).

A shooting game where you control a spacecraft at the bottom of the screen, defending Earth from rows of descending alien invaders.

The game was revolutionary when it came out in 1978.
A puzzle game where different shaped blocks (called tetrominoes) fall from the top of the screen. Rotate and move the blocks to create complete horizontal lines, which then disappear.
