Offline Browser Games
Play browser games offline — no internet connection needed after your first visit. Weekly Arcade is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that caches games locally so you can play on planes, subways, or anywhere without wifi.
How Offline Browser Games Work
Weekly Arcade uses a Service Worker to cache game files locally on your device after the first visit. Once cached, games load instantly without an internet connection. This technology — called a Progressive Web App (PWA) — is supported by Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge on both desktop and mobile. According to web.dev, PWAs combine the reach of the web with the experience of native apps, including offline support, home screen installation, and push notifications.

- Automatic caching — Games are cached via Service Worker after first visit (average game size: under 50KB)
- Works everywhere — Play on airplanes, subways, camping, or anywhere without wifi or data

- Sync when online — Scores and progress sync to the cloud automatically when you reconnect
- All browsers supported — PWA works on Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge on desktop, iOS, and Android
- No app store needed — Skip the App Store or Play Store — install directly from your browser
