Y8

Y8 is a web portal for browser-based online games. The site hosts a large library of games across genres such as action, puzzle, strategy, arcade, dress-up, and sports. Most titles are playable directly in a web browser and are free to play, with additional features for registered users. The site emphasizes community-driven content, allowing developers to submit games and players to rate and comment on titles. Game pages include a description, controls, user ratings, and related titles.

Originally built around Flash technology, Y8 transitioned to HTML5 and other modern web standards as Flash declined. The site supports desktop and mobile devices, though the exact availability depends on the game's implementation. Content is generally ad-supported, with pages displaying advertisements and optional monetization elements for developers.

Users can create free accounts to save favorites, track progress in select games, and participate in leaderboards or multiplayer sessions where available. The site also curates collections and promotions to highlight new or popular titles. Content is user-generated and licensed in various ways; the site enforces terms of use and age labeling to guide access.

Y8 is part of the broader ecosystem of online casual gaming portals that emerged in the mid-2000s. It is widely used for informal gaming and entertainment. The platform competes with other browser-game portals by offering a large volume of titles with a simple, ad-supported experience.
