· VERSION 2

Play freely. Earn your collection. Master every game.

  • Kept the original twelve games free and added Memory Vault and Lights Out with 60-second demos and permanent unlocks earned through play.
  • Added optional email-based accounts, password reset, a collection, saved Forge Tokens, unlocks, and achievements across devices. Game boards still save in each browser.
  • Expanded each game's achievement list with skill, difficulty, endurance, and long-term challenges. Harder milestones award larger one-time Forge Token bonuses.
  • Rebalanced game rewards and unlock prices for a steadier earning pace. Completing every current achievement turns the game's collection and achievement cards gold.
  • Added optional Forge Token packs through secure Stripe checkout; purchases credit the signed-in account after verified payment. Free play remains available, and demo games never award tokens or achievements.
  • Added All, Free, and Unlockable game filters, distinct free and unlockable cards, and clear guest reward notices.
  • Rebuilt the home introduction around the game selection, Forge Tokens, and achievements, followed by the game categories.
  • Standardized navigation on all pages and account states; game links stay visible until the screen is too narrow, then move into the menu.
  • Kept every achievement list visible to guests while showing earned progress only when signed in.
  • Moved game controls to the top and added expandable instructions and FAQs; restored Game Categories on information pages without an inner scrollbar.
  • Added the anvil-and-controller icon, refreshed account and email recovery, and consolidated the site's policies under Legal.
  • Launched version 2 on the main Mini Forge site with a consistent single-line menu, stable account links, live feedback, and contact routing.
  • Connected Mini Forge registrations to the private Forge signup overview.

Forge Tokens can be earned through full games or purchased optionally. Demo games and guest play do not award tokens or achievements.

· VERSION 1.3

More games, better controls, and a clearer home

  • Expanded the catalog from four to twelve games: Minesweeper, Sudoku, Number Slide, Snake, Brick Breaker, Circuit Dash, Reversi, and Four in a Row.
  • Restructured the menu around About, All Games, and four game categories, with quick access to updates and contact information.
  • Added browser-local saved games and undo history, puzzle difficulty choices, arcade best scores, and CPU or same-device two-player board games.
  • Added Solitaire double-click moves to foundations or legal columns, Spider quick moves, Send to foundation, Deal row, and optional automatic War dealing.
  • Made repeated War ties visible, preserved the shuffled 52-card deck, handled short decks, and clarified how face-down cards contribute to the winning pile.
  • Clarified Color Match action cards and draw controls, and improved game instructions and status messages.
  • Applied a consistent play layout across the game catalog, improved desktop and phone controls, resized Solitaire and board games, and expanded Snake’s playing area.
  • Rebuilt the homepage with clearer category and game listings, added an About page, and improved search metadata and the sitemap.
  • Added a Contact Us form and a LIVE feedback button for questions, bug reports, and suggestions.
  • Updated Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, and the shared Forge Labs footer.
  • Fixed layout, navigation, saved-game compatibility, and control issues; checked game rules, repeated ties, forms, and desktop and phone layouts.
