everything you need to know
General

What is FuryBee Arcade?

A collection of free browser-based games you can play with friends. No downloads, no accounts, no ads. Just open a link and play.

Is it really free?

Yes. 100% free, no hidden costs, no premium tiers. We do this for fun.

Do I need to create an account?

Nope. No sign-up, no login, no email. Just open a game and start playing.

Multiplayer

How do I play with friends?

Most games work the same way:

  • Open a game
  • Create a room or get a room code
  • Share the link or code with your friend(s)
  • They join, and you're in!

What does "peer-to-peer" mean?

Your game data travels directly between players, not through our server. We only help players find each other (signaling), then we step out. This means lower latency and better privacy.

How many players can play?

It depends on the game:

  • 1 player — Tetris, Flappy, 2048, Minesweeper, Bee Runner, Snake
  • 2 players — Chess, Checkers, Connect 4, Battleship, Othello, Pong, Gomoku, Nim
  • 2-8 players — Draw, Word Chain, Hangman, Dots
  • 2-10 players — Poker, UNO
  • 4-10 players — HiveMind

Can I play on mobile?

Yes! All games are designed to work on mobile browsers. Some are better on desktop (Chess, Battleship), but everything is playable on phone.

Technical

What technology does this use?

Plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Games use WebRTC for peer-to-peer connections and WebSocket for signaling. No frameworks, no heavy dependencies.

Why does the connection sometimes fail?

WebRTC peer-to-peer connections can be blocked by strict firewalls or corporate networks. If you can't connect:

  • Try a different network (mobile data often works)
  • Make sure you're both using a modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)
  • Some VPNs can interfere — try disabling yours temporarily

Is my data safe?

We don't collect any data. No cookies, no analytics, no tracking. Game data stays between you and other players. Check our Privacy Policy for details.

Does it work offline?

Single-player games (Tetris, 2048, Snake, etc.) work once loaded. Multiplayer games need an internet connection to find and connect to other players.

Games

What is HiveMind?

A social deduction game set in a beehive. Players are bees completing tasks, but some are secretly hornets trying to sabotage the hive. Discuss, vote, and figure out who's the impostor before it's too late! Needs 4-10 players.
