Everybody is invited to download and play games. If you do so, make sure to cast your vote because there is also a prize of 20,000 ₽ (USD 290) that will be given for the game chosen by the public vote. As of this writing, the page with all contestants’ information and download links is in Russian only, but it is pretty easy to find the download links and get’em all.
