This is an unofficial fan-made digital adaptation of the physical Compile board game. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the official release in any way.
The original physical game was designed by Michael Yang. I highly encourage you to check it out and support the official release. You can find more information about the original game on BoardGameGeek here: https://www.justgravyllc.com/

Download & Instalation
Important Note for Windows and macOS Users Because this is an indie game without commercial digital signatures, your operating system (like Windows SmartScreen or macOS Gatekeeper) might show a security warning if you download and run the standalone files directly. To easily bypass these warnings and ensure you always have the latest version with seamless auto-updates, I highly recommend installing the game using the official itch.io desktop app.
How to install using the itch.io app (Steps)
Follow these instructions:
- Download and install the official desktop application from itch.io/app.
- Open the app and log in with your itch.io account.
- If you have already claimed or purchased the game, go to your Library. Otherwise, open COMPILE URL within the app.
- Click the Install button (this will automatically download the correct version for your operating system).
- Once installed, simply click Launch to play!

Recommended Installation
I highly recommend installing this game using the official itch.io desktop app. Because this is an indie project, the game does not have commercial digital signatures. If you download the files directly, your operating system will flag them with security warnings. Installing through the itch app bypasses these warnings entirely and ensures your game stays automatically updated.
Direct Download Instructions
If you still prefer to download the standalone files, please follow these steps to bypass the security blocks:
For Windows
- Download the zip file and extract all its contents into a folder.
- Double click the
.exefile to launch the game. - A blue "Windows protected your PC" screen will appear. Click on More info.
- A new button will appear at the bottom. Click Run anyway to start the game.
For macOS
- Download the zip file and extract it.
- If you double click the
.appfile, macOS will warn you that the file is damaged or cannot be verified. - To bypass this, right-click (or hold Control and click) on the app and select Open from the context menu.

For Android
