This page lets you try out Minetest in your web browser. No installation is needed. Note: Sorry, this might not work well on phones. It's mostly for people who have keyboards.
+This feature is presently based on a git repo originally from Paradust7. A snapshot is hosted at, and may be downloaded using, the following link:

+ +Note: Only the actual arrow keys will work at the 2nd link. The number-pad arrow keys won't work.
+3. Some messages should appear.
+If error messages about a JavaScript exception or a TypeError occur, you can disregard those messages as long as each only happens once.
+After a minute, a Launch Minetest button should appear. If it doesn't appear, give up and close the window.
+4. If the Launch Minetest button appears, press it and wait a minute. A Minetest GUI should appear. If the GUI appears, click on the Join Game tab.
+5. A server list might appear. Whether or not one does, you should be able to visit Final Minetest worlds by entering hostname, port, and user information on the right side. Trolltest worlds might work as well. MultiCraft worlds probably won't work.
