Hiyah Free Software Listing

The programs are completely free and easily installed / uninstalled.   The Download versions are made to run on Microsoft Windows compatible operating systems. The Play Online version works on Macs or PCs.  We welcome suggestions and comments  (support@hiyah.net)  Thanks!

To be automatically notified of new programs and updates, please click here (note: do not use your school email address if it is blocked from receiving outside emails)

Download vs. Play Online: If you are using a PC running MS-Windows and you are on a computer that you are allowed to download to, Download is clearly the best option.  The program will have a much higher resolution, the speed and animations will be better, and the program is on your own PC to use whenever you wish.  If you are on a school computer that does not allow downloads or your are using a Mac, the Play Online option is the best alternative for you.  It will have a much lower resolution and the animations are somewhat distorted.   Download and Play online are BOTH FREE.
