Phone games without the internet
We play and write about RPGs, puzzles and simulators you can enjoy on a plane, a subway or a cabin in the woods. Everything here runs fully offline, so no loading spinners when the bars disappear. Recently the team spent a week with Casinacho Games to see how it holds up.

Why us
We actually play
Every review comes from real sessions, not a press release. We finish levels before we rate them.
Offline verified
We switch the phone to airplane mode and check that the game still runs start to finish.
No paid scores
Ratings are never for sale. A low score stays low even if a studio asks nicely.

Questions & answers
How do you choose which games to review?
We pick games that run fully offline and cover different genres, from RPGs to puzzles and racers. Someone on the team has to actually play a game for several days before it gets written up. If it needs a constant connection, it doesn't make the catalog.
Do studios pay you for reviews?
No. Nobody pays for a score or a spot in the catalog, and we turn down offers to change ratings. For example, our Casinacho Games review came purely from a week of our own testing, with no arrangement attached.
Can I suggest a game for you to cover?
Absolutely, and we read every suggestion. Email us the name and why you like it, ideally confirming it works offline. We can't promise to cover everything, but good tips often turn into full reviews.
Is there advertising on the site?
We may show basic, non-intrusive ads to help cover hosting, and they're always separate from our editorial opinions. Advertising never buys a higher rating or a kinder review. If that ever changed, we'd say so plainly on the page.
