Puzzle Deck

One page of puzzles, every day.

Four puzzles a day. The same four for everyone, everywhere, decided by the date rather than by a server โ€” so your Tuesday is my Tuesday, and the grid you share means something to the person you share it with.

One attempt each. Come back tomorrow.

What a day looks like

Three of the four are the same every day: a number puzzle, a flag, and a pipe grid. The fourth is a Wildcard that changes weekly and comes from a pool of twelve โ€” an estimate, a map, a word ladder, a colour match, a photograph coming slowly into focus. Fifteen stars are on the table and almost nobody takes them all.

Finish the day and you get a grid worth sending: emoji, stars, and nothing that gives the answers away. There is a board too, showing how many people scored what โ€” a shape rather than a list of names, because a daily leaderboard with names on it is a record of who played when.

The parts worth knowing

Where to get it
