About

What is NostalgiaX and why does it exist?

Our Mission

NostalgiaX is a tiny web arcade built for people who miss the feeling of blowing dust out of cartridges, waiting for dial-up tones to finish, and chasing high scores on shared family computers.

The goal is simple: fast, fun, retro-inspired mini-games you can play in your browser without downloads or accounts. Just open, play, and compete with yourself on the same device.

How It Works

  • Games run directly in your browser using HTML5 Canvas and JavaScript.
  • Scores are saved locally using your browser’s storage.
  • No personal data or password is required to play.
