Let’s get you
playing.
From your first round to your first friend.
Find the answer, then get back to the fun.
How to play
A few minutes, a game you like, and you’re ready. Everything runs in your browser.
Pick a game
Browse the arcade or search for a favorite. Choose a game to open it.
Check the controls
Each game explains its controls below the play area. Take a quick look before you start.
Play a round
Choose Play random or Play with a friend. When the round ends, play again or try something new.
On your computer
Use your mouse or keyboard, following the instructions for that game.
On your phone
Use the game’s touch controls. The layout adjusts to your screen.
A little tip: tap the heart on a game to save it to My favorites. Use the sound control in a game to turn its audio on or off.
Playing with friends
Your friends list is ready to grow. You can add people now; accepting a request won’t start a match.
- Open Friends, then + Add friend.
You’ll find Friends at the top of the arcade and game pages.
- Share a link or find your friend.
Copy your invite link to share it. Or paste your friend’s @handle or Duelumi invite link and press Enter or tap the search icon.
- Approve the invitation.
Opening a shared link shows who invited you, with Approve and Decline buttons. Approve to become friends; the sender gets a notification. If you found someone by their handle, choose Invite and they can accept in Requests.
Keep track of requests
In Requests, accept or decline incoming invites and cancel requests you’ve sent.
Manage your friends list
Choose Manage beside a friend to remove or block them. Unblock someone in Blocked; you’ll need a new request to become friends again.
To start a live match, open a game, choose Play with a friend, and invite someone from your list. Your friend can accept from any arcade or game page. If your list is empty, choose Add friends to share your invite link or find someone by their handle.
Common questions
Do I need to download anything or sign up?
No download or signup form. Open the arcade and a player is created for you automatically. You can shuffle to a new generated nickname and customize your avatar in your profile.
Can I play on my phone?
Yes. Duelumi works on desktop and mobile, and the games include touch controls.
How do I earn and use coins?
A completed practice or live win earns 50 coins. You can also collect daily rewards when they’re available. Spend your coins in the shop on avatar colors, expressions, and accessories.
Can I get notifications when I’m away?
Open My profile → Notifications and choose Enable in this browser. You can choose invitations, approvals, or both, and turn them off there. On iPhone and iPad, first add Duelumi to your Home Screen from Safari’s Share menu and open it from that icon. Device notification settings, Focus modes and browser background settings can affect delivery.
Where are my favorite games?
Choose My favorites in the arcade. Favorites are saved in the browser where you added them, so another browser will have its own list.
Why can’t I open the site or an invite link?
Duelumi is currently limited to approved networks, including the office. Both players need access from an approved network.
What if a game or my player won’t load?
Check your connection, then refresh the page. If you see Retry connection, try that button. Avoid clearing site data as a first step: it can remove access to your player. Read about your browser data →

Keep your site data to keep your player
A different browser or device starts a new player. Clearing Duelumi’s cookies can remove access to your current one. There’s no sign-in or account recovery option yet.
Clearing browser data doesn’t delete the account records saved on Duelumi.
Your invite link is only for friend requests. It doesn’t let someone sign in as you.
Help us improve Duelumi
Analytics is on by default unless you previously turned it off in this browser. We use Google Analytics to understand onboarding, invitations, avatar customization, games, and rematches. Google receives these interactions, a browser cookie identifier, and browser/device information. Analytics cookies last up to 180 days.
We don’t send your nickname, handle, player ID, friend list, invite tokens, search text, or full invitation URLs. Coin events describe virtual game coins, not money. Advertising signals and personalization are disabled.
Analytics is optional. Turning the Analytics toggle off does not affect play or rewards. Use Analytics settings in the footer to change your choice. Turning analytics off stops future measurement in this browser and removes its analytics cookies; it does not delete events already received by Google or your Duelumi account.
