About these games

Sometimes you have ninety seconds, not half an hour. These games are built for exactly that: a full round starts and finishes before your coffee cools, with no tutorial, no progress to lose and nothing to save. Whack-a-Mole runs thirty seconds. The Reaction Time Test takes five clicks. A game of Tic-Tac-Toe against the AI is over in twenty moves.

Short doesn't mean shallow. The reaction test gives you a number you can actually compare against yourself on a bad night's sleep versus a good one. Tic-Tac-Toe against a perfect minimax opponent is a compact lesson in why the game is a guaranteed draw — and in spotting the forks that beat imperfect human opponents. They're the pages to open when you want a break that ends cleanly instead of eating an hour.
