Hi all, does anyone know of a good alternative to games like Wordle, Connection, and Skrbbl? Self-hosting puzzle and party games would be fun I think. Preferably options that have intuitive UI (else no one will use them!)

I have found a couple options, awesome selfhosted mentions scribble(dot)rs which seems pretty cool. Awesome selfhosted also suggests “word-mastermind”, and the demo instance is down, is it any good? (a quick search shows a bazillion Wordle clones that people have made as a programming challenge. If I had the time I might try making my own, but I have loads of schoolwork on my plate right now)

    Virtualtabletop can be selfhosted.

    We use it to play Blokus, Rummikub and more with family all over the country. All a player needs, is a device with a browser, and a link to join a given table. Grandma uses an android tablet to play Rummikub with us.

    The games already implemented are many, and you can contribute your own.
