| Ellaz is a free game. This means that the source code and media files are available to be studied, modified, and distributed. Most projects look for help with testing, documentation, graphics, etc., as well. | |
Ellaz is a collection of 42 small games that run in a web browser. Development began in July 2026 and the site was first published in August 2026 by Sigmafier.
The collection covers puzzle, word, memory, arcade and board games; 25 of the 42 are marked in the source as being aimed at children. The site can be installed as a progressive web application, and once it has been loaded the games continue to work without a network connection. Progress is kept in the browser's local storage: the project has no server and no user accounts.
The interface is translated into 11 languages, and each game's description page is published in four of them (English, Hebrew, Spanish and French). Both left-to-right and right-to-left layouts are supported.
Technical[edit]
The games are written in TypeScript. Most are rendered with Preact; one, Snake, uses the Phaser engine.
The project ships no separate media files. The artwork is drawn as SVG in the source code and the sound effects are synthesised at run time with the Web Audio API, so the source licence covers the whole game. Three font families used only when generating page images at build time - Heebo, Cairo and Noto Sans - are bundled together with their licence texts under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.
Single-game builds of Snake, Sudoku and 2048, which run offline from a local copy, are published separately.
