Let's be honest about the elephant in the room:

Many developers use GitHub.io to bypass app store fees and restrictions, making their games truly portable across any device with a screen.

A complete open-source clone of Sid Meier’s Civilization II . This is a heavyweight portable game. You can play a full 4X strategy game for 10 hours, close your laptop, and resume on a different computer via the same URL.

Unlike random .exe files downloaded from forums, HTML/JavaScript running in a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) is sandboxed. The worst that can happen is a pop-up or a CPU miner—but GitHub.io strictly forbids miners, and the site is HTTPS encrypted by default.
