Description
Three classic 1-vs-1 board games packed into one phosphor-green CRT terminal.
Outsmart a friend online, or face off against a sharp heuristic AI when no
one's around.
🎯 GAMES INCLUDED
▌ BATTLESHIP
Place your fleet on a 10×10 grid, hunt the opponent's ships, take the last
one before they take yours. The smart-targeting AI hunts in lines and
exploits hits the way a real opponent would.
▌ 4 IN A ROW
Drop your discs into a 7×6 board and line up four in a row before your
opponent does. Minimax-driven AI weighs threats, blocks immediate wins,
and plays a tight center game.
▌ REVERSI
Place a disc to flank your opponent's pieces and flip them to your color
on an 8×8 board. Most discs at the end wins. The AI uses classic positional
weights — corners are gold, X-squares are landmines — and keeps you on
your toes with mobility play.
⚡ PLAY HOW YOU LIKE
• Online multiplayer — host a 6-digit room, share the code, play in real time.
• Solo vs AI — instant matches, no setup, no waiting.
• No ads in your face. No real-money mechanics. Just the games.
🖥 RETRO CRT TERMINAL VIBE
Every screen is rendered like a 1980s arcade monitor — phosphor green and
amber on near-black, subtle scanlines, sonar blips, signal LEDs. The board
games feel like the games themselves rebuilt for a tactical war room.
🎮 FEATURES
• Quick-match game-picker on launch — pick the game, jump in.
• Animated disc drops on 4 in a Row with a winning-line connector.
• Place-grow animation and pulsing last-move ring on Reversi.
• Optimistic UI — moves register instantly, opponent updates the moment
they happen.
• Per-game leaderboards — Battleship, 4 in a Row, and Reversi rank
separately so a streak in one game doesn't dilute the other.
• Anonymous play out of the box; sign in with Google to track stats,
claim a country flag, and climb the leaderboard.
• Profile + top-scores screens for cross-game stats.
⚙ WHY THIS APP
Built for people who like the idea of board games but don't want bloated
f2p mechanics, video ads between turns, or 90s clipart. Three solid games
done right, in a visual language that respects your eyes.
More games coming. Same hub, same vibe.
