12 games, all free and all in your browser. Open one to see how it plays, or make a room and let the host pick.

Made for game night

Real-time play

Every move reaches the other players as it happens. The fast-paced games connect your devices directly, with a relay for strict networks.

One room, every game

Make one room and stay together. Switch games between matches without anyone having to leave or rejoin.

The host is in charge

The host picks the game and its rules for the whole room, and can remove anyone who spoils the fun.

Play anywhere

Phones, tablets and computers, in any modern browser, with no sign-up: guests just type a name. A few games are best with a keyboard, and some want your phone turned sideways.

Chat while you play

Talk in the lobby while you choose, and inside games like Doodle Dash and Tower Siege while you play.

Stats, coins and challenges

Sign in with Google and your profile keeps your wins and stats. Earn coins by playing, and finish daily challenges for gems.

Games to play with friends, right in your browser

PlaywithBuddies is a small, free website for playing games together online. Every game runs in the browser, so one friend on a phone, another on a laptop and a third on a gaming PC can all join the same room. One person creates the room and shares its code, and the whole group moves from game to game without anyone leaving.

There are 12 games so far, for 1 to 8 players, and a match lasts anywhere from 2 to 20 minutes, so there is always time for a rematch.

Nothing is for sale, and the games have no adverts inside them: any ads appear only on pages of the site, never in a room or a match. Coins, gems and cosmetic unlocks are all earned by playing. Sign in with Google and your progress is saved to your account, so it follows you from your phone to your computer; a guest keeps their coins until they close the tab.
