Rock Paper Scissors Online

Choose

Choose your move

Choose rock, paper or scissors, then reveal one independently selected computer move. The game runs in your browser: it uses Web Crypto for the computer choice, keeps the score only in page memory, and sends neither your moves nor your results to the server.

Matching moves produce a tie. The computer choice is selected after you continue to the reveal step. It is independent of your move and of earlier rounds.

What stays in your browser

The game does not send your choice, the computer choice, the score or the result to the server. In the three-step flow, the selected move is kept in sessionStorage only long enough to complete the setup. That setup expires after 30 minutes and can also disappear if the browser clears session storage.

Wins, ties and losses are held in page memory. Reloading the page or choosing Reset clears them. This tool does not offer accounts, saved games, rankings or multiplayer matches.

Randomness and limits

Each computer move is selected with your browser’s Web Crypto getRandomValues() API. The game does not inspect earlier moves, learn your habits, adapt its choices or perform pattern analysis. If secure browser randomness is unavailable, the tool does not play the round and asks you to use a current browser instead.

The result is a quick browser game, not a test of skill against a person. Any short streak in the score is simply the record of the rounds played in that page session.
