About Clearhaven
Last updated: October 20, 2026
Clearhaven is an independent guide and review site for free browser games. Our library currently catalogs 221+ games across 39 categories, and every title we list gets an in-depth guide written from actual play sessions — not recycled descriptions.
The wasteland is unforgiving; bad information is worse. That is why we exist: to give players honest, complete, testable knowledge before they spend their time in a new game.
What We Cover
We focus exclusively on HTML5 and browser-based games — survival, shooting, puzzle, strategy and everything in between. If it runs in your browser and is free to play, it is a candidate for our catalog. Every game page includes:
- Story and core gameplay loop breakdown
- Controls, performance and system requirements
- Hidden mechanics and achievement walkthroughs
- An objective 10-point editorial score
- Reference sources for factual claims
Editorial Standards
Our scores weigh controls, depth, polish, performance and replay value. Scores are Clearhaven's own assessment and are never official ratings from a developer or publisher. We do not accept payment for reviews, rankings placement or guide coverage. When a source is cited, the link is provided on the game page so you can verify it yourself.
Our Values
Objective Reviews
Every score balances praise with criticism. We cite reference sources and never sell ratings — developers cannot pay for coverage or better scores.
22-Point Guides
Each game gets a guide covering story, mechanics, system requirements, hidden achievements, controls and replay value — written after hands-on play.
Free & Accessible
We only cover HTML5 games that run in your browser on desktop, tablet and phone. No downloads, no installs, no paywalls between you and the game.
Player First
Community tips and comments sit alongside our editorial content. Real player experience is part of how we surface the best hidden mechanics.
Who Runs Clearhaven
Clearhaven is maintained by a small team of players, writers and developers. We play every game we cover, argue about scores internally, and update guides when patches change mechanics. Found a mistake or a game we should cover? Contact us.
