Sweeper Curling

Sweeping the ice with nothing but a well-timed button mash is somehow the most satisfying part of Sweeper Curling. You aim your stone, lock in the power, then hammer the sweep to nudge it closer to the target - it's curling, but you're the one doing the ice-scrubbing this time.

The whole thing is built for the family to play together. Colorful graphics, dead-simple controls, and a target that doesn't care how good you are at physics - just get your stone nearest the center. Play against a smart AI when you want a quiet round, or pull in a friend for 2-player mode when you want bragging rights on the line.

If you're after something with the same easygoing, anyone-can-play energy but a different ball entirely, Soccer Random and Robby Mini Games scratch a similar itch on this site. Sweeper Curling fits right in with Winter games and other Sports games here - no snow gear required, just a browser.

Slide your stone down the ice and land it as close to the center of the target as you can - closest wins the point.

Use the Arrow Keys to aim your shot, then press Enter/OK to lock in the power. Once the stone is moving, tap Enter/OK repeatedly to sweep the ice and control how far it travels. Mouse and touch controls work too.

Sweeping is where the real control lives, so don't stop tapping too early - a stone that dies short of the target scores nothing.
