AXIS Users Can Now Access 56 Free Games via AXISnet
JAKARTA — Access to digital entertainment via mobile phones is becoming increasingly varied. One option is online gaming that can be played without downloading an additional app. This easy access offers users a way to pass their free time while enjoying a range of games.
Gamefinity, in partnership with WeChat Games, part of Tencent, has brought 56 free games to the MINIGAMES service on the AXISnet app. The service was introduced to the public at the AXIS Nation Cup (ANC) 2026 Grand Final at Istora Senayan.
Through the service, AXIS users can play a range of games directly in AXISnet without installing an additional app or buying a special package. MINIGAMES has in fact been available since July 2026, while the ANC Grand Final provided the occasion for its official introduction to the public.
Gamefinity chief executive Fariz Mawardi said ease of access was a key consideration in developing the digital gaming service.
“Playing games should be as easy as opening an app that is already on your phone. With MINIGAMES, AXIS users only need to tap once and they can start playing,” Fariz said.
The 56 games cover a range of genres, from puzzles, action and racing to board games and two-player games. The selection offers alternatives for users with different gaming interests and preferences.
Several games also have names familiar to Indonesians’ everyday lives, including Tukang Kayu, Ramuan Ajaib, Domba Dombi, Tali Kusut and Sate BBQ.
Two games with distinct mechanics are Suster Ngesot and Warung Madura. In Suster Ngesot, players are challenged to survive by strengthening a bed and building defensive towers before facing threats in the game.
Warung Madura, meanwhile, uses match-three mechanics: players match three identical items to clear space on shelves. They must arrange merchandise and complete each level within the time limit.
Fariz said using names drawn from everyday Indonesian life was one of the approaches taken in creating the collection.
“We want every game to feel familiar from the moment it is opened. That is why all the titles in MINIGAMES have names that are close to the everyday lives of Indonesian players,” he said.
As well as introducing the digital gaming service, the AXIS Nation Cup 2026 Grand Final gave visitors the opportunity to try out the games. The student futsal tournament, organised by XLSMART under the AXIS brand, is in its fourth year, with events held in 40 cities and around 1,730 schools taking part.
AXIS Senior Vice President of Product and Go To Market Aga Rasyidi Sukandar said the collaboration was part of efforts to provide digital services suited to young people’s needs.
He said digital games could expand customers’ entertainment options through easy access without the need to download an additional app.
“We welcome the collaboration with Gamefinity to bring MINIGAMES to AXISnet as part of AXIS’s ongoing efforts to provide a digital experience relevant to young people’s needs and lifestyles,” Aga said.
AXIS users can access the service by opening the AXISnet app and selecting the MINIGAMES icon on the home page or in the Lifestyle menu. They can then choose a game and start playing immediately.
