Don't Waste Words

A word duel where each player builds from the last word: every reused letter earns points, while every new letter costs them. Play solo or local 1v1 on one keyboard, mouse or touchscreen; a round takes only a few minutes. The game is still in development and was submitted to a game jam.

Figure

Numbers down the side and across the top hide a picture in the grid. Every puzzle is checked by a solver before release, so none requires a guess; line feedback can tell you something is wrong without revealing the cell. The collection includes 43 hand-drawn grids from 5x5 to 20x20, plus one shared daily puzzle.

Movidle

A daily movie poster starts hidden and is revealed piece by piece — every wrong guess costs you a square. Everyone gets the same film at midnight ET, with streaks, themed weekly events, collectible badges and friend challenges. This is not Moviedle: Movidle only shows the poster, while Moviedle uses cast and genre clues.

Word Ladder Daily

Turn one four-letter word into another, changing one letter at a time and making a real word on every rung. The shortest route is par; match it for three stars. There are 36 increasingly difficult levels, an endless Climb, a fresh puzzle at midnight UTC, free undo and an optional hint. Progress stays in your browser — no account, ads or analytics.

Verdict

A new deduction case appears for everyone at midnight UTC. Something has vanished from Blackwood Manor; cross-check six suspects, clear the innocent and identify the thief before three magnifying glasses run out. Every case has exactly one logical solution, with three difficulties, a 30-day archive, challenge links and support for sixteen languages.

Beat the film

Five mystery clips, and one question for each: what year did this film premiere? The clock starts when the trailer rolls, so the game tests composure as much as film knowledge. Closer and faster guesses score more, with 5,000 points available across a run. It is also playable on the creator's Viik Games site.

HOW THIS LIST WORKS

A daily feed, with an editorial brake.

Our daily scan keeps free browser releases created in the previous 48 hours, removes demos and event uploads from the shortlist, and checks that each selected game has a clear premise and a playable web build.

Every displayed image is stored locally for a stable page. If the daily scan is unavailable, the previous successful edition stays live instead of showing an empty list.
