Kongregate is an American web gaming portal and video game publisher. Its website features over 124,000 online games and 30+ mobile games available to the public. The company also publishes games for PC, mobile, and home consoles. It was purchased by GameStop Corporation in 2010[2] before being acquired by Modern Times Group MT AB in 2017.
The website's portfolio of games spans a wide range of genres. Kongregate is the home for several idle/clicker games, including Adventure Capitalist, Crusaders of the Lost Idols, and Anti-Idle: The Game.
On the web portal, users could upload Adobe Flash, HTML5/JavaScript, Shockwave, Java, and Unity games with integrated high scores and achievement badges.[1][3][4] The portal was closed to new user submissions in 2020, though previously submitted games remain.
