Recess: Board Games

Recess turns your phone into a shelf of brain games and party favourites you already know, to play with friends nearby or far away, or against the robot when you're on your own.

Open a table and send the code, let a friend scan the QR code, or find a table nearby on the same Wi-Fi or over Bluetooth, and you're playing. Nearby needs no internet at all. No account. No sign-up.

Familiar games, including:

• Chess: Full rules, an optional clock, with a friend or the robot. • Chinese Chess (Xiangqi): River and palace included, with a friend or the robot. • Go: Black and white stones, a few simple rules, and a game you can play for life. • Mandarin Squares (Ô ăn quan): The Vietnamese schoolyard game of sowing stones and taking mandarins. • Battleship: Hide your fleet, call coordinates and sink theirs. • Plane Battle: Hide your planes and find the heads of theirs. • Five in a Row: First to line up five wins. • Tic-Tac-Toe: Quick, simple, and always "one more round". • Rock Paper Scissors: No more arguing over who threw late. • Sudoku: Solve alone, race a friend, or solve one grid together. • Number Hunt: Find 1, 2, 3… faster than your friend. • Number Match: Match two equal numbers or two that add up to 10. • Dominoes: Match the ends and be first to play your last tile.

Need dice? Recess has them too: standard, fish-prawn-crab, and 4, 8, 10, 12 and 20-sided dice. Everyone at the table sees the same roll.
