About
Lobby Meadow is a reader's guide to browser board games
It covers 6 games, links to their pages on CrazyGames and Poki and takes no money from any of them. The games were opened and the terms read on 10 and 11 November 2026.
What the site does and does not do
Lobby Meadow describes board and card games that run in a desktop browser without a download. It does not host games, hold accounts or sell subscriptions. The green button on a game page opens the game where it lives: on crazygames.com or poki.com.
The list is short on purpose. For 6 games on 2 hosts the terms, the age rules and the advert slots can all be read and counted. For 60 games on 20 sites they could not.
Both hosts are companies with published terms. The terms of CrazyGames name Maxflow B.V. of Leuven, Belgium, as its operator, and Poki's privacy pages give Poki B.V. in Amsterdam.
Nobody pays to be listed
No game pays for its page. CrazyGames, Poki and the studios behind the games were not asked and have not approved the texts. The links to games carry no referral codes, and the site has no adverts.
What this guide cannot tell you
It cannot tell you whether chess or mancala is the better game. Each game was given 1 to 3 moves or turns; no page gives a score or a star rating of Lobby Meadow's own.
It cannot promise that a game will still be on its host next month, or still without a shop. Each page shows the date of the check, and the terms explain what to do when a page has gone out of date.
It did not test phones, and it did not see British adverts: the check ran in a desktop browser from Thailand.
Why the pages look like a game board
The row of numbered squares under the menu is a track, as in Ludo or any other race game. Each square is a section of the page, and the red pawn stands on the one being read. Pressing square 3 jumps to section 3.
The strip of 3 boxes on every game card copies the side of a board game box, where publishers print players, minutes and age. The 11 pictures were drawn for the site and show no real game's artwork; the credits page lists them.
