Hand-picked simulations that best show off real-time physics, chemistry, biology and computation running entirely in your browser — one standout from each major category.
55 simulations60 fps real-time0 install stepsThis page collects the simulations that best represent what mysimulator.uk can do — chosen for a mix of visual clarity, scientific depth and technical polish, not just page views. Every one of the 1,300+ other simulations lives in its normal category; being featured here is an additional spotlight, not a move.
The selection deliberately spans categories rather than clustering in one field: fluid dynamics sits next to quantum mechanics, ecology next to cryptography. If you only have a few minutes and want to see what real-time browser simulation is capable of, this is the shortest path there.
Use the filters on the left to narrow the list by category, technology (2D canvas vs 3D WebGL), difficulty or theme — the same filtering you'd find on any category page, just applied across all of them at once.
It's an editorial pick, not a ranking by traffic or an algorithm. Each simulation was chosen to be a strong, self-explanatory example of its category — something you could show someone in 30 seconds to demonstrate what the site does.
No — accuracy and depth vary by topic, not by featured status. A sim is featured for being a particularly clear, polished entry point into its field, not because the physics is more correct than elsewhere on the site.
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser — no downloads, plugins or accounts. Works in Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari; most simulations also work on mobile.
Yes — all content is free for educational use under CC BY 4.0. Link to any simulation directly or embed it in your LMS with an iframe; no API key required.
