Frequently asked questions

What counts as an arcade game?

An arcade game is built around a single simple mechanic, immediate feedback and a high score rather than a story or a campaign. Snake, brick breakers, maze chases and space shooters are the classic examples, and all of them are designed so a new player understands the game within one run.

Are these arcade games free?

Yes. Every arcade game on Plixoo is free to play with no paywall, no subscription and no lives to wait for or buy.

Do arcade games work on a phone?

Yes. Each one supports touch controls as well as a keyboard, so the same game plays properly on a phone, a tablet and a laptop.

Which arcade game should I start with?

Neon Snake and Brick Breaker are the easiest to pick up because almost everyone already knows the rules. If you want something with more going on, try Maze Muncher or Pixel Invaders.
