*Complete or mostly complete, significant in scope, and fully-playable. While there is certainly room to interpret how "finished" a game is, all games on this list should be playable to completion by the average player in a minimum of fifteen minutes, be the definitive version of that game (no demos of commercial games), and contain no glitches that prevent completion and/or crash the game. For inclusion on this list, a game should also have most of its intended levels and mechanics implemented, as described by the game's developer. In terms of the minimum playtime requirement, high-score based puzzle and arcade-style games are less limited in this regard due to their essentially infinite replayability, though should still include score counters, life meters, and preferably (though not a requirement) high-score counters where applicable to be considered complete or near-complete. Due to the varying ways in which a game's completeness can be interpreted, this criterion may be applied differently on a case-by-case basis.

As the games on these lists are more thoroughly tested, some games currently present may be removed if they are found to not meet the required criteria. If a listed game is found to no longer be sold by its publisher, it will be removed from this article. If several iterations of a game exist on a platform, such as Pong or Tetris, the best few among them should be kept and the rest removed, assuming that the latter do not have additional mechanics that make them unique. Additionally, new games will be added to the lists as they are found and tested. Once a page for suggesting additions to or removals from these lists has been created, it will be linked to here.

In categorizing FunKey S compatible software, there are several factors that can be used to differentiate one piece of software from another, including if its: running natively or emulated, freeware or commercial, a game or a utility, published in a collection or individually, and whether or not its ROM file is easily accessible for use in emulators, among other factors. To make navigating to specific types of software easier, all software has been divided into lists that are split between articles, based on several of the factors listed above.

There are currently '''1,377''' games listed across the freeware and commercial emulatable game articles in addition to '''34''' utilities.
There are currently '''11''' third-party native programs, '''1,377''' emulatable freeware and commercial games, and '''34''' emulatable utilities.


== Games ==
== Native programs (OPKs) ==


Due to the availability of development tools such as an [https://doc.funkey-project.com/developer_guide/tutorials/build_system/build_program_using_sdk/ SDK], several native programs have been created for or ported to the FunKey S. An extensive list of such programs can be found [[List of third-party OPK applications|here]], with applications, emulators, and games being the primary program types.
⚫
This section lists various games that are playable on the FunKey S. The two primary types of games are those that run natively on the FunKey S and those that are emulated.

This section lists various games that are playable on the FunKey S. The two primary types of games are those that run natively on the FunKey S and those that are emulated.
Since the FunKey S has not yet released there are currently no native third-party games available for it, however, once such games begin to be released, a list will be created for them.


=== Emulated ===
=== Games ===


This section links to lists of games for systems that the FunKey S can currently emulate. These games can either be freeware, meaning that they are free to download for use in emulators, or commercial, meaning that they are currently being sold in a digital or physical format. As compatibility with additional systems is announced, games for those systems will be added to the existing lists. The following list contains all of the systems that the FunKey S can currently emulate, in addition to systems that cannot currently be emulated on the device but whose future emulation has been confirmed by the FunKey Team (such systems are marked with a '''¹''' symbol):

== Utilities ==
=== Utilities ===


This section links to a list of utilities that can either be emulated or run natively on the FunKey S. To make searching for certain tools easier, utilities are divided by type rather than by platform, so each listing will also list which platform the utility is for. Listed utilities include, but are not limited to, calculators, eBook readers, emulators, and music players.
