Because his puzzle-games collection are computer games you can play yourself, they can be found here: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/ Or in the appstore/playstore.

My current timewaster is 'patterns',a nonogram puzzle

Interestingly, I JUST finished reading (many years after it was published) The Player of Games written by Iain M. Banks. In it, there is an orbital habitat named Chiark.

I assume that the interest in games and the hostname of his webserver are very much related.

The server is named after that orbital habitat, but not by Simon - it's someone else's webserver.
