Everything about playing, recording and posting your games. Can't find an answer? Every game page also has its own FAQ.
Playing and recording
What is TimePlay?
TimePlay is a free website with 88 browser games and a Kids Zone with 12 learning games. Every game runs in the browser, and a built-in recorder saves your gameplay as an MP4 video.
Are the games free?
Yes. All games are free to play, with no download, no install and no account.
Do the games work on mobile phones?
Yes. Every game works with touch on phones and tablets, and with a keyboard or mouse on a computer. The Reels games are vertical (9:16) and fill a phone screen.
How do I record my gameplay?
Open any game and press Record (or the R key), play, then press Stop. The video downloads as an MP4 file with game sound. Use Chrome or Edge for MP4; Firefox can only save WebM.
Can I post the recordings on Instagram, YouTube or TikTok?
Yes. Recordings are MP4 files with H.264 video and AAC audio, the format Instagram, YouTube and TikTok accept. Reels games record at 720 × 1280 (9:16), the size for Reels and Shorts. Each video carries a small timeplay.co.in watermark, so viewers can find the game.
Are my recordings uploaded anywhere?
No. Recording happens entirely in your browser and the file is saved straight to your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
Which games have levels?
Level games such as Spiral Core, Block Escape, Block Fit, Slide Tiles and Glow Grid have Normal, Medium and Hard levels. Clear a level to unlock the next; progress is saved in your browser.
What are Reels games?
Reels games are vertical 9:16 games designed to look great when recorded, such as Spiral Core, Fruit Merge, Ring Escape and Helix Drop. Record a run and post it as a Reel or Short.
Is there anything for young children?
Yes. The Kids Zone has 12 learning games for ages 3–9 covering numbers, letters, shapes and colours, thinking, memory, telling the time and hand control. Questions are read aloud and the Kids Zone has no ads.
Where are my scores and progress saved?
In your browser's local storage on your device. They are not linked to an account, so clearing browser data or switching devices starts fresh.
Kids Zone (for parents)
What age is the Kids Zone for?
Ages 3 to 9. Each game lists its age range, and the difficulty adjusts to your child automatically.
What skills do the games build?
Numbers: counting, comparing, adding and taking away. Letters: letter recognition, first sounds and spelling. Shapes & Colours: naming shapes and colours, mixing colours. Thinking: patterns, sorting and finding what's different. Memory: short-term memory and concentration. Time: reading an analogue clock. Hand Control: fine motor control for early writing.
Can my child play without reading?
Yes. Every question is read aloud, and a speaker button repeats it. Turn the sound on.
Are there ads or purchases in the Kids Zone?
No. The Kids Zone has no ads, no chat, no links out and no purchases.
How do I see my child's progress?
The For parents panel on the Kids Zone page shows stars for each skill and how many rounds have been played. Progress is saved in this browser only.
