Questions
Is it free to try?
Yes. Uploading your CV, checking what we found, editing and playing every game is free, with no account and no card. You pay once only if you publish a game to a public link. See pricing
Do I need an account?
Not to build and preview. You sign in with an email code or Google when you publish, so you can edit and manage your game later.
Who can see my game?
A preview can be viewed by anyone who has its link, and edited only from the browser that made it. A published game is seen by whoever you share the link with. It asks search engines not to index it, so a search for your name shouldn't turn it up, and there is no public directory of games.
What happens to my CV file?
It's read once, in memory, and never stored. We keep only the details pulled out of it, which you check and edit. Unpaid drafts are deleted 30 days after your last edit. Privacy
Will recruiters and applicant tracking systems read it?
Apply with your usual CV: applicant tracking systems (ATS) read documents, not games. Share your CVArcade link next to it, in a message, on LinkedIn or in your email signature. Anyone who'd rather read gets the same content as plain text, and the game opens on a card with your name, current role and top skills.
Does it work on phones?
Yes. Every game plays in the browser on phones and desktops, with touch and keyboard controls and nothing to install. If a device can't run the game, it shows your CV as text instead.
Can I change it after publishing?
Yes. Edit and republish as often as you like, and switch to another game any time. Your link stays the same; the address itself can't be changed after publishing.
