Neal.fun

Neal Agarwal's playground of games, visualizations and weird stuff.

  • Rabbit hole
  • Works on phones
  • Alive
Your verdict:

Neal.fun is the home page for Neal Agarwal's collection of small web projects, which the page bills with the tagline "games and stuff by Neal." It is a grid of tiles, and each tile opens a self-contained toy, game or visualization. When we checked, the grid included Infinite Craft, The Password Game, Spend Bill Gates' Money, The Deep Sea, Size of Life, Internet Roadtrip and plenty more.

There is no theme beyond curiosity. One tile might be a scale comparison, the next an absurd moral dilemma, the next a simulator for something you probably should not be allowed to do. Most take a few minutes, and some, like Infinite Craft, can swallow an evening.

If you only bookmark one site from this directory, this is a strong candidate. It is the closest thing the modern odd web has to a flagship, and new projects keep appearing. Start with whichever tile name makes you tilt your head, then work your way down the page.

Tips for getting the most out of it

  • Scroll the whole grid before picking; the best tile is rarely the first one.
  • Most projects work on a phone, so it is a good waiting-room site.
  • Some tiles have sound, so check your volume first.
