Free 2 player games to play with a friend

Looking for something to play with a friend? Every game on this page works with two players online — board games like chess and backgammon, a game of pool, a head-to-head pub quiz, word games and fast arcade battles. Many take more players too, up to six round one table.

Share a chat room code with your friend so you find each other, then challenge them from the lobby. Friends who share a chat room also get free text chat in their games. No friend online? Every game can be played against the computer or on your own as well.
