PlayCrafter was a Flash game website, allowing users to make and play games made in a simple drag-and-drop builder. The website was created by startup ZipZapPlay in 2008, which was later acquired by PopCap.

The site was funded by pips, advertising, and premium accounts, allowing benefits such as 100 levels per-game and the ability to upload custom music. Despite this, the low traffic the site received resulted in PlayCrafter being shut down in May of 2011. The games previously created on PlayCrafter are no longer available, with limited preservation through photos, videos, and this wiki.

The founders of PlayCrafter and ZipZapPlay, Curt Bererton and Mathilde Pignol, have recently formed a new games studio, Roboto Games.
