The opponents are not AI powered but claude wrote some much better procedural opponent game rules and strategies so its much more challenging than 247 hearts.
It's been a bit since I've done anything other than Wordle.
Really Bad Chess was a daily driver for me. I loved the chaos, which strangely collapsed to recognizable patterns and strategies based on difficulty and board layout.
Oh, you said phone browser. Are you against native apps?
2048 is fun - you can probably find a browser version of that.
I don’t like installing apps but that’s a personal peeve. 2048 is a good one. Thank you.
Chess gives me anxiety - like I’m supposed to play to win and not just enjoy the game, unlike, say, Sudoku where getting stuck or filling the grid wrongly doesn’t seem as life or death.
None. The Phone's browser is unsuitable for games and I am not masochistic.
A while back I was enjoying Mahjong Solitaire: https://www.crazygames.com/game/mahjongg-solitaire
Gerrymandle, although it's started the slow slide into ads and popups in the past month. https://gerrymandle.com/puzzles
saimiam's comment mentioned 2048, so I'll plug my variant:

I used to play 247 Hearts a lot but then I built a better version for myself.

Well...people who like chess who I've showed Really Bad Chess to really don't like Really Bad Chess. Maybe the flip side is true?
You may find the same anxiety as in real Chess but for me RBC is just a fun, soft brained exercise.
Since you're already on the NYT site/app, try Pips, Tiles, and Sodoku.

I'm shamefully obsessed with https://sudoku.coach
I play a lot of chess on lichess.org No login required and the matching system is very decent.
uncrossy. About twice a week I go and do the last few days of puzzles. Ever since I first saw it released here on HN.
My favorite mobile game of all time is Arknights, although it isn't a browser game.
Not a fan of installing apps. Personal peeve.
At a high level, why do you like Arknights?
