About GamesArcade.Online

GamesArcade.Online is a free online arcade dedicated to two great eras of browser gaming: the classic Flash games of the early web, and the modern HTML5 games that replaced them.

Our Flash Arcade

When Adobe retired Flash Player, thousands of beloved games stopped working overnight. We use Ruffle, an open-source Flash Player emulator written in Rust, to bring those classics back — safely and without any browser plugins.

Our HTML5 Arcade

Our HTML5 hub features free, open-source games that run natively in any modern browser on desktop and mobile. Each game is credited to its original author, and we are always adding new titles.

Game Licensing

Every HTML5 game on GamesArcade.Online is open-source software, hosted under the licence published by its author (MIT, Apache, GPL, MPL, BSD or similar) and credited on its game page. Our Flash arcade preserves freeware-era games that were distributed free of charge, emulated with the open-source Ruffle player. Game titles and descriptions on this site are our own original text, and we do not use third-party trademarks or branding.

If you are a rights holder and believe any game or asset should not appear here, please contact us via the details in our Terms & Conditions and we will remove it promptly.

Free to Play

GamesArcade.Online is completely free to play, with no advertising. No accounts, no downloads, no paywalls — just press play.
