About online games to play with friends
Every game on this page can be played online with a friend. There is nothing to install and no account to create: start the game, choose vs Friend, then invite with a link, and share it however you like. When your friend opens the link, the game connects and you take turns from your own phones, tablets or computers.
To keep things friendly for families, there is no text chat; players can only send a few emoji reactions. Many people play on a video call at the same time, which makes it a great way to keep in touch with grandparents or friends far away.
For game ideas, see our guide to games to play with friends online. Sitting together? The arcade games are made for sharing one screen.
