classic games

Ten games that predate the browser in one form or another, and mostly resist being modernised.

Sokoban Push The Box is the strictest of them, and its rules have not needed changing in decades — crates push but never pull, so one shove into a corner ends the level quietly, without telling you.

Gold Miner Classic is a single click per drop, timed against a claw swinging over buried rock. FreeCell leaves the card rules exactly as Windows shipped them — every card face up from the first deal, so a lost game has no one else to blame.

A good tag to open if a modern shelf feels crowded with meters and currencies.
