Free Games to Play on UK Train Journeys
Looking for free games to play on a UK train journey? TEDs PLAY has browser puzzles you can open without installing an app or creating an account. Start with a memory game that lets you choose the board size, or explore other puzzles if you have a longer trip. These games load online, so keep an internet connection available.
A memory game for a short or long journey
MindMatch asks you to flip two cards at a time and remember where the matching symbols are. Select a 4×4 board for a shorter session, then try 6×6 or 8×8 for a longer challenge. You can return to the menu to change your setup or reset for another round. Read the game instructions before starting.
Another puzzle if your device supports it
In Block Blaster, drag shapes onto an 8×8 grid and complete a row or column to clear space. Its game engine needs WebGL, so it may not run in every browser or on every device. If it does not load, return to MindMatch or choose another title from the puzzle collection.
Before you board
- Check the connection: These are online games, not offline downloads. Railway Wi-Fi or mobile signal can vary during a journey, and a game may need to reload after a connection drops.
- Check your data plan: Playing over mobile data may incur charges from your provider. We cannot promise a fixed data amount for each game.
- Check the controls: Read each game’s How to Play section. Some games work with touch, while others may need a keyboard or browser features such as WebGL.
- Keep sound considerate: If the game uses audio, use headphones or mute it in a shared carriage.
