one star

Something got terrible reviews. Work out what it is from as few reviews as you can.

  2. Type a guessPick from the suggestions as you type. Each wrong guess, or a skip, brings the next review, and each one gives more away.
  3. Same for everyoneEveryone gets the same one each day, so you can compare with friends. Missed a day? Play it once from the archive.

stack

Play stack
  1. Pick oneEach turn you get two things. Pick one to drop on the pile.
  2. Trust your eyeHeights stay hidden while you build, so judge it from what you know about real sizes. Stop whenever you like.
  3. The revealWhen you stop, the tower grows to its real height piece by piece. Past the line and it topples: 0 points. Otherwise you score the share of the target you reached, up to 100 a tower.

Dailies and streaks

A new daily every day
Each game has a new daily at midnight UTC, and everyone gets the same one, so you can compare with friends. The one exception is higher, where your climb is your own.
One go at the daily
Your first try counts. Leaving in the middle ends it with what you had.
Streaks
Play a daily every day to build your streak. Miss a day and it starts again.
Archive
Missed a day? Every game except higher keeps its past dailies in an archive, each playable once. Higher has unlimited practice instead. Neither counts toward your streak.
