Six small games

Built while learning. The first three are puzzles around things I spend time on: essential oils and SEO. The last three are just for unwinding after a long day at the screen. They all work with a mouse, keyboard or touch.

Game 01

Blend Lab

Choose a mood, then pick three oils. A good blend has one top, one middle and one base note that all suit the mood.

Pick a mood

    Scent only, no health claims. Dilute oils before skin contact and keep them away from children and pets. More safety tips.

    Game 02

    SERP Sprint

    Eight statements about SEO. Decide whether each is true or false. Keyboard: press T or F.

    Game 03

    Crawl Bot

    Guide the crawler to every page so it can be indexed. Step on a 404 and you go back to the start. Use the arrow keys, swipe, or the buttons.

    Game 04 · Unwind

    Bubble Wrap

    No score and no timer. Tap a bubble to pop it, or drag across a row. When the sheet is done, take a fresh one.

    Game 05 · Unwind

    Breathe

    A slow, even rhythm to follow for a few rounds. Breathe in for four, hold for four, breathe out for four and hold for four. Stop whenever you like.

    Breathe in

    In 4 · Hold 4 · Out 4 · Hold 4

    Breathe gently and never force it. If you feel light-headed, stop and breathe normally.

    Game 06 · Unwind

    Ripple Pond

    Tap the water to drop a pebble, or drag to trail your finger through it. Turn on the rain and just watch for a while.
