Play it now
You can play Cloak right now, either on a cloud server or, if you are using a robust modern browser, on your local machine (172.3 KB).The local version runs with no further network access – games are saved in your browser's local storage space. You can save the page locally too, and later just point the same browser at the saved html file to continue playing.
The current A-code version, used to construct all builds on offer, automatically gives the game a persistent state, even though the game itself offers no such facility. This means that if the game is interrupted in whatever way, on restarting it will automatically restart at the point of interruption, unless a new game is explicitly requested.
Pre-built versions
Pure HTML/JavascriptLinux Intel/AMD 64 and 32 bit
Linux Arm 64 and 32 bit
Windows Intel/AMD 64 and 32 bit
DOS for Intel/AMD emulators
I can no longer provide a native macOS build, though HTML/JS is obviously available to Apple users.
Game sources
A-code source of Cloak can be found in the gzipped tarball cloak-1.6-src.tgz (1.4 MB), or equivalently in the zipfile cloak-1.6-src.zip (1.4 MB).
Both packages also contain sources of the acdc A-code to C translator and of the A-code kernel, used in building executables offered by this page. They also contain game's C-soures, already converted frome the A-code source by the acdc translator and combined with the required kernel sources, ready to be compiled and linked with any ANSI C compiler. Full A-code documentation (version 0.9) and other potentially useful bits and bobs are also included.
