The Trending Ten — bite-size games, big park energy

The ten games need JavaScript. They are drawn frame by frame in the browser, so with JavaScript switched off there is nothing above this line to play. Everything else on ParkSyde works without it.

Playing with a keyboard? Tab moves between games and the arrow keys move around the grid; Enter or Space starts the one you are on. In a game: arrow keys or WASD to move, Space or Z to act, M to mute, Esc to quit. The five games that ask you to tap something give you a keyboard picker instead — arrow keys step between the things you can choose and their names are read out as you go.
Playing without sight? Three of the ten — ParkSyde Patch, Park Pals and Style on the Green — are played entirely from what the picker says, numbers and all, so they can be finished with the screen off. The other seven ask you to react to something drawn (a gap, a firefly, a bouncing ball) and cannot honestly be played by ear; we would rather say so than have you find out by losing.

The game is drawn on this screen. Arrow keys move, Space or Z acts, Escape quits back to the arcade menu.
