NEARena: Games for Friends

Play together with the people next to you – no internet, no Wi-Fi, no accounts, no ads. And with friends far away, over the internet. NEARena is a set of offline games with friends: 15 Bluetooth multiplayer games – board games, card games, arcade and solitaire – for up to 4 phones nearby. No Wi-Fi, no mobile data: multiplayer works over Bluetooth alone, phone to phone. One person creates a room, the others join it, and the whole table plays the same game, each on their own phone. Play on a plane, at the cottage, on the beach, or take them along as road trip games in the car – anywhere your friends are. Friends far away? The host can invite them over the internet with a link or a short room code, sent through any messenger. Card, board and logic games and the solitaires play the same as at one table, the arcade games too when the connection is fast enough, and friends nearby stay on Bluetooth in the same room. Internet play is optional and needs no account. 15 GAMES IN 5 GROUPS Arcade • Ping Pong • Neon Crash – light trails for up to 4 players • Tanks – free-for-all, 2 vs 2 or together Logic • Bulls and Cows • Four in a Row • Pairs Board • Ludo • Nine Men's Morris • Chess Cards • Pastra • Sergeant Major (3-5-8) • Makao Solitaire • Klondike • Spider • FreeCell PLAY ALONE OR WITH FRIENDS • Every game has a bot with three levels: Easy, Normal and Hard. • Empty seats at the table are filled by bots, so four-player games work with two or three people too. • If someone has to leave, a bot takes their seat and the game goes on. • In solitaire, race a friend or a bot on the very same deal. MADE FOR THE TABLE • No sign-up and no servers of our own: over Bluetooth your games stay between your phones. • Clean, readable screens and big cards, made for phones. • Remembers the people you play with and counts your wins against each of them. • Available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Bulgarian. ALL FREE Every game is free – alone against the bot and with friends, in rooms of up to 4 phones, and over the internet. No purchases, no subscription, no accounts. No ads. Ever. Board games, card games and arcade games with no ads in between. Bluetooth connects the phones nearby in a room, without an internet connection. The internet is used only when you invite friends far away. NEARena does not use your location.
