Physics games are the genre that built browser gaming. Long before mobile gaming was a thing, ragdoll launchers, box-stacking puzzles, and gravity simulators were what people pulled up on classroom computers and shared on forums. What they all have in common is that the game world isn't scripted — it's calculated, frame by frame, and the fun comes from emergent chaos when your plan meets the simulation. Under this tag you'll find pretty much every shape this idea has taken. Ragdoll games where you fling a hapless figure off ledges, into walls, through windows. Construction puzzles where you build a bridge or a tower out of unstable parts and watch whether your structural intuition was right. Wrecking-ball demolitions, momentum-based platformers, soft-body car crash sandboxes, balance puzzles with stacked geometric shapes. Smash-'em-ups where the satisfaction comes from watching small impacts cascade into total destruction. And the contemplative subgenre too — slow-paced gravity puzzles where you draw lines, change masses, redirect a ball, solve the level. What keeps physics games perennially good is that the simulation always finds new edge cases. Even on a level you've cleared a hundred times, one slightly different push spawns a chain reaction you've never seen. Sessions are flexible — three minutes for a quick destruction sandbox, half an hour for a deep puzzle. Every physics game on nub.games is free to play, runs entirely in your browser, and requires no download or install of any kind.
