Tiny Tools → Daily games
Three small puzzles. A new one for each, every day.
Numbers, colour and logic — pick one or play all three in a couple of minutes. Every puzzle is the same for everyone that day, so you can compare results. No signup, no app, nothing to install; each game runs entirely in your browser and remembers your streak on your own device.
The daily numbers game. One target, five numbers — combine them with +, −, ×, ÷ to hit it exactly. Fewer numbers used is a better solve.
Play Reach →The daily colour game. Match five target colours by eye with hue, saturation and lightness sliders. Scored by how close it really looks.
Play Shade →The daily logic game. Crack a hidden four-colour code in eight guesses using 🟩 / 🟨 clues. Pure deduction — no vocabulary or trivia.
Play decode →Each of these is a daily puzzle: the game picks one puzzle per calendar day from a fixed seed, so everyone in the world gets the exact same challenge that day. You get one real attempt at today's puzzle, it takes a minute or two, and then it's done until tomorrow. That deliberate scarcity is the whole point — it turns a game into a small daily ritual instead of an endless time-sink.
When you finish, each game gives you a spoiler-free result you can copy and paste anywhere — a little grid of coloured squares that shows how you did without giving away the answer. Share it, and whoever sees it can go play the same puzzle and compare.
| Game | Skill it exercises | Good if you like… |
|---|---|---|
| Reach | Mental arithmetic, working backwards from a target | The numbers round on Countdown, quick mental maths |
| Shade | Colour perception, reading hue / saturation / lightness | Design, photography, trusting your eye |
| decode | Deductive logic, ruling out possibilities | Mastermind, bulls-and-cows, logic grids |
A once-a-day format keeps a game a small, low-guilt habit: there's a fresh challenge waiting each morning, a streak worth protecting, and a result worth comparing — but no bottomless feed pulling you back in. All three of these keep your streak and best score locally on your device, so nothing depends on an account and nothing follows you around. Bookmark this page and you have all three in one place; come back tomorrow for new puzzles.
