About
About Arcadekite
Arcadekite is a small set of original arcade games, each named after something that happens in the wind. We make them for adults who like a quick game of chance with nothing at stake.
What we make
Six games, each written from scratch for this site: Updraft and Vortex are reels, Jetstream is a grid of duct tiles, Tailhold and Threadline are card tables, and Wind Drum is a dice game. None of them is a copy of a game from anywhere else, and none of them carries the name, look or sound of a real-money gambling brand. The art is our own.
How it is run
Every game runs in your browser. There are no accounts and no servers keeping score. The only balance is lift, a play unit with no cash value that cannot be bought, swapped or redeemed. When it runs low, a free top-up brings it back to 2,500. We do not sell anything and we do not show adverts.
The maths of each game is fixed and is the same for everyone. Every round is drawn fresh with your browser's cryptographic random number source, and the animation only shows a result that has already been drawn. Pay tables are printed in full on each game page.
Who it is for
Arcadekite is for adults 18 and over in the United Kingdom, for entertainment only. There is no real money play and there are no prizes of monetary value. Playing or success in these games does not imply future success at real-money gambling. We ask your age before anything else, and we would rather lose a visitor than have a child play here.
What we will not do
- Sell lift, sell anything else, or run adverts.
- Use timers, daily drops or streak rewards to bring you back.
- Show made-up players, made-up reviews or fake activity.
- Link to, promote or take money from real-money gambling businesses.
- Track you: there are no analytics, no pixels and no cookies.
