Kettle Tab, for evenings with a little room left
An editorial journal of gentle browser games, organized by real-life occasions such as rainy Sundays, bedtime, and train journeys.
Field notes
Kettle Tab organizes recommendations around circumstances rather than conventional genres: a rainy Sunday, twenty minutes before bed, or a train ride. The visible lists include Fallen London, Little Alchemy 2, My Free Farm 2, Townscaper, and Flight Rising, with descriptions emphasizing dim screens, short sittings, and one-handed play. The site states that its games are played for three weeks each, and its framing rejects scores and constant engagement in favor of something that can be left alone for a week.
