Ways These Games Play
Arcade games began as coin-operated machines in loud arcade halls, built to be easy to start and hard to master. You play short turns, get instant feedback, and keep chasing higher scores.
Match-3 Battles
Connect three or more to spark chains and power-ups. Match Monsters turns bigger clears into extra moves, heals, damage, or mana. Build combos that extend turns and burst down your opponent before they answer.
Timing Games
Tap or flick at perfect moments to keep moving or hit targets. Bounce only passes obstacles that match your ball's color; a wrong color sends you to the last checkpoint. Skeeball multipliers move when scored, with two in round three.
Real-Time Battles
Both players act at once. In Brawlbots, shots, jumps, and shields resolve together each round. In Blitz League, you drop units into lanes; heavier ones push lighter, and the first to smash the enemy base wins.
Falling Blocks
Rotate and drop pieces to match three or more before the stack reaches the top. In Plox, clears send junk to your opponent; bigger chains and cascades send more. Keep the stack low and survive the rush.
Great games
We build and curate all our games in house, from classics like Chess to Plato originals like Match Monsters. Each game is easy to learn and fun with friends. Chat is part of the experience, not an afterthought.
Real players
We match you against people, not bots. Public queues seat you quickly with others who want to play now, while private tables are for your crew via an invite link. No fake multiplayer tricks — just real matches with chat next to the game.
No ads
Plato does not run ads. No pop-ups and no video breaks. Nothing cuts into a match or a chat. We also avoid tracking you don't need, so you open a game and play without commercials in the way.
No pay-to-win
Plato does not sell gameplay advantages. Shop items are cosmetic — for looks and flair, not for power. If you win, it is because you and your team played well, not because you bought an edge.
Can I play online?
Yes. Install the Plato app on iOS, Android, or macOS to play the full catalog with friends or matchmade opponents. You can also play Ocho online in your web browser — no install needed.
Can I play with friends?
Yep. Tap Create Private Game, then share the invite link or invite from your contacts. When they tap Accept, they're seated at your table.
Is it free?
Yes — free to play and ad-free. If you buy something, it's for looks (themes, profile flair), not power.
Is it fair?
Shuffles, deals, dice, and timers run on Plato servers, not your device. Everyone plays by the same rules and no one can peek at hidden information.
Is it safe?
You can block and report from profiles or chat. Public spaces use filters and human review. Some rooms use Chat Pass to deter spam, and privacy controls let you limit who sees you online.
Live vs. turn-based: what’s the difference?
Both are turn-taking; the difference is the clock. Live uses short timers for quick back-and-forth. Turn-based gives you longer — often up to 24 hours per move in games like Chess — so you can play at your pace.
