Welcome to Sketchpad Arcade
October 8, 2026
Sketchpad Arcade is a collection of free games you can play in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and every one of them is drawn to look like a kid sketched it in pencil. There is nothing to download, no account to make and nothing on the site we would not want our own kids to see. It is made by Restless Faith Media, a small independent studio in Pensacola, Florida.
Why we built it
We already ran Beach Day Arcade, a site of bright, painted beach games. Then we tried redrawing one of them in pencil, as if a ten-year-old had copied it into a sketchbook, and we liked it so much we wanted a whole site that looked that way. Sketchpad Arcade is that site: the same kind of quick, clean, family-friendly games, on graph paper and lined notebook pages, with dark pencil outlines and coloured-pencil inside.
What is here
The site opened with sketch twins of the Beach Day games, like Sketch Sprint, Doodle Drop, Draw Brawl and Margin Merge, and has started adding games of its own, beginning with Paper Plane Dash. Every game has its own page with a short guide on how to play, the controls, a few tips and a bit about how it was made.
What to expect
Family-friendly, always. Hand-drawn art and characters. Progress saved on your device, not ours. And a site that keeps getting a little better every week. If you have an idea for a game, or you found a bug, the contact page is the place to tell us.
