Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection
page contains a collection of small computer programs which implement one-player puzzle games. All of them run natively on Unix (GTK) and on Windows.
If someone else would like to volunteer to maintain the Mac front end code and provide a downloadable application, I'll help them get started, and link to their site once it's up and running. I wrote this collection because I thought there should be more small desktop toys available: little games you can pop up in a window and play for two or three minutes while you take a break from whatever else you were doing. This game collection is copyright 2004-2021 Simon Tatham (portions copyright Richard Boulton, James Harvey, Mike Pinna, Jonas Kölker, Dariusz Olszewski, Michael Schierl, Lambros Lambrou, Bernd Schmidt, Steffen Bauer, Lennard Sprong, Rogier Goossens, Michael Quevillon, Asher Gordon and Didi Kohen).
