Welcome to the Arcade

This is a space for joyful distraction, with free browser games that are lighthearted, strange, and built to delight the bookish brain on break.

Our first release is Run for Cover, a fast-paced game where you race to shelve falling books and climb the rickety rolling ladder of a storied library career. From Official Volunteer to Library Director, every promotion is earned in sweat, panic, and paperbacks.

The game updates weekly with new contenders from the Book Jacket Bracket (and a couple bonus titles), so the game evolves as the tournament unfolds.
