How the library is organised

Games are grouped into six categories by what they actually ask of you rather than by theme. Platformers test timing and spatial judgement. Adventure games test routing and map memory. Battle games test pattern reading. Collection games test risk judgement. Runners give you one decision at a time, faster and faster. Reflex games take a single mechanic and push it until it breaks you.

Difficulty labels describe execution pressure rather than depth. A game rated Easy may still be strategically deep — Monster Cannon Challenge is the clearest example, since it never asks you to react quickly at all.
