Games you can play on a Kindle

Every one of these runs in the web browser your Kindle already has. They are turn-based or tap-driven, because that is the only shape e-ink handles well, and each screen is drawn once so the page does not flash. Free, no jailbreak, nothing to install: open kindlehub.pro in the Kindle browser and bookmark it.
