What it does

Pick a game and play—no download or signup wall. Mela brings 18 browser games into one shared playground: play solo, invite friends, bring an AI agent to supported games, or join the crowd and influence the match. Run a three-game Circuit with your group, join by QR, and revisit scorecards, clips and playable memories. WebMCP and remote MCP let agents take part under the same game rules. Eighteen games is just the start.

Play Pen Fight, cricket and more with MelaBot, friends or agents. Join a crowd, change a match and keep its story. No signup needed to play.

  • Play abstract strategy board games online with friends or against bots2025 · abstractboardgames.com · ▲180

    Thought I would post in celebration of 1 year of my website being online. I've been working on it on and off and currently the website allows users to play Hex, Tumbleweed, Amazons, and Connect 6 against friends or against practice bots. I've been a long time player of some of these games and I felt for a long time that the world could use a few more popular abstract strategy games compared to Chess or Go. If you try it, let me know what you think. I'm always looking for new games or new features to add :)

    Hi! I build an MCP server that allows clients to play Minesweeper. It turns out that Claude is not very good at it (makes obvious mistakes, hasn't won a single game on a 9x9 board after many attempts). I am curious how I can prompt Claude to do better?
