Daily games · one list
Ten daily games in one place.
If your morning means a tab for every daily game you play, Rather puts ten in one list. A new set arrives at midnight, each from a different game.
One day there’s a nonogram among them, the next a word to guess. The Easy ones are a gentle start and the Expert ones are for when you want to dig in.
What each one asks of you.
-
The classic nine-by-nine: every row, column and box holds 1 to 9.
-
Small grids of sums and products: every cage makes its number.
-
One star in every row, column and colour, and no two stars touch.
-
Number clues hide a picture; fill the squares and watch it appear.
-
Zeros and ones, never three alike, and no two lines the same.
-
Five grids of shapes; spot the rule and pick the missing piece.
-
Turn scrambled tiles until every pipe joins one network.
-
The old pocket puzzle: slide the numbers back into order.
-
Turn two cards at a time and remember where each piece was.
-
Draw one line through every square, passing the numbers in order.
-
Draw one closed loop along the dots. The numbers count its sides.
-
Split the grid into islands. Each number is the size of its island.
-
Fill the grid with heights. Each number counts the towers seen from there.
-
One hidden five-letter word, six tries, and colours that tell you more.
