I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.
I’ve tried worldle, but I’m crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.
Any recommendations?
Murdle: https://murdle.com/
A daily logic puzzle murder mystery.
that’s awesome!
Is there a way to play previous ones? That’s something that always bothers me in these daily puzzles
Unfortunately not. There are several books released though. I have the first one, it’s pretty fun and a nice way to occupy oneself with a break from screens.
I noticed that the code is quite open to check, so currently I’m poking around the code to see what functions to call to reset the puzzle to a specific date or a random generated one.
It’s a bit tricky
"It’s really hard to make an abstract idea concrete, so they used marble. " lol
(from the tutorial mystery)
I just played today’s. Maybe I need to play more to really get it. Is it always this trivial?
Mondays are always the easiest level. As the week goes on the difficulty goes up.
Ahh ok cool, I’ll keep at it. Thanks for the recommendation.
I quite enjoy challenging my musical knowledge with https://bandle.app/
I thought I’d be terrible but got it in 2. I mean, it is a very iconic bass line, but I’m still proud. Thank you for the suggestion!
One word is the key word, every other word is ranked by relatedness, #300 is the 300th closest word, #1 is the correct word.
https://travle.earth/ you’re given two countries and asked to name the countries in between.
A while ago I used to play Redactle unlimited, a game in which, by entering words, you need to uncover the text from a random Wikipedia page, and the goal is to find the title of the Wikipedia article with as less words as possible
That’s pretty fun too! I had to use a few hints but I bet once you get used to it it gets easier
My issue is that if you don’t know what the article is about and it’s not a word/concept you know, there’s absolutely no chance of ‘winning’.
Absurdle is an antagonistic version of wordle. The word changes based on your guess to be as hard as possible.
There’s also this version of passwordle in which you guess the the input to make the matching sha256.
I just want to say that this was a fantastic thread, and thank you for posting. There are some great suggestions in here.
My nightly routine before bed:
- Smartle (simple word game)
- Chronophoto (guess the year five photos were taken)
- TimeGuessr (guess the year and location five photos were taken)
- Connections (NYTimes categorization game)
- Spelling Bee (NYTimes letter game)
- Hurdle (basically five linked Wordles)
- Wordle
- Strands (new NYTimes letter game)
Also try to play AntGame.io at least once a day to get a decent score.
The NYT games are my morning ritual but I haven’t seen strands before, that’s exciting! I know it’s beta but I wish it showed up in the games app, hopefully soon
I used to do https://cardle.uk/ every once in a while but I got a bunch of British cars I didn’t recognize. I wish it told you if you guessed the manufacturer as well.
I would love to do a North America cardle with common cars mixed in with high end cars.
Hexcodle: https://hexcodle.com/
Guess the colour in RRGGBB hex code.
That’s neat, never heard of this.
My friend recently introduced me to Mathler.
It’s a game where you have to guess a math formula that’s equal to a given number, by giving both the digits (0-9) and operations on those numbers (+ - * /). You can even pick a difficulty depending on how good your math skills are.
I’ve been stuck with Figure for the longest time
I’m not 100% sure what I did but hey, I solved it! Thanks for sharing
I really like Connections: https://www.nytimes.com/games/connections
There’s also a fan made archive of the older games: https://connectionsplus.io/nyt-archive
I like Travle, which might also help with your geography (or just be difficult for you).
If we expand out to any daily game, I’m a huge fan of Timeguessr.
Travle is difficult but I’m a little obsessed. Thank you!
I highly recommend checking out this GeoGuessr Free Alternative that combines real street exploration with an exciting competitive twist.
