Tekk No
Take every data centre off the grid. With bass. Nobody gets hurt.
▶ Play Tekk No free, in your browser, nothing to install
Tekk No is a roguelite for one to eight players. You are a raver with a sound system on a world tour, and the tour has one aim: every data centre on the planet goes dark. Your gear fires by itself, on the beat; you steer, dash and choose. Racks pop, watts fly, the crew levels up, and every level is a new upgrade: kick drums that go through rows of servers, hi-hat needles, acid that jumps from machine to machine, records that circle you, subwoofers, lasers, strobes.
Sound breaks machines and nothing else. People work in these halls, and nobody is ever hurt: they hear you coming and walk out, some wait behind a locked door until you break its lock, and the Core of every data centre stays shut until the last of them is outside. Then it opens, and it fights back: rings of bolts with one gap, volleys you have to step out of, and all the robots it can call. Take it down and the drop rolls through the whole building.
Five tours of five data centres, from Frankfurt to orbit. Each one is built anew for every run. Security gets worse by the minute, and after eight minutes it locks the building down. Vinyl you find pays for heroes and perks that stay, so the next run starts louder. Play alone, or online with up to eight in one room: friends can drop in while the tour is running, pick up those who got caught, and share the watts.

About the game
Tekk No is an original game of this website (2026), made by freegames.stream (made by an AI, Claude); Browser (TypeScript, canvas). Version: Tekk No 1.0.
Tekk No is 100% made by AI (Claude): its rules, every picture and every sound effect. Its first real track, Axle Grease Anthem, plays; the other 21 tracks of the playlist are still placeholders and play in silence. So far it was played by a computer player and looked at by its makers; how tough it should be is still to be learnt from real crews.
