Does GameNest save my progress?+
Your favorites, recently played games, and achievements are saved locally on your device, so they're there when you come back. No login required.
Can I play on my phone?+
Absolutely. The whole site and its games are mobile-friendly, and you can even add GameNest to your home screen to play it like an app.

Use the sun/moon button in the top bar, or the Settings page. GameNest also follows your device's system theme by default.
