Relaxing Games

The Games

• Paper toss: type what's bugging you, crumple it and flick it into the bin. Every throw lands unless you turn on Free aim.
• Pop it game: pop a rainbow, heart, round or giant board, or a sheet of bubble wrap that never runs out.
• I'm bored button: one tap, one thing to do, from a joke to a small idea away from the screen.
• Coloring pages: tap a shape to fill it, then save the picture or print the page.

Games for Two

The pop it game has a mode for two people on one screen. Take turns popping bubbles from a single row; whoever has to pop the last bubble loses. For games that need no screen at all, try the ideas in games to play when bored.

Calming Games, Not Challenges

Every game here is built to be finished in a few minutes and to ask nothing of you. Toss It lands every throw unless you switch on Free aim. The pop it board flips over and refills itself, and only its two-player mode has a winner. Nothing keeps a score.

Playing at Work or on the Go

Sound starts off on every game, so you can play on a bus or in a quiet office. On a computer, press Esc and the page turns into a plain spreadsheet until you press it again.
