About Play Dailies

Three small games, one new challenge each, every day.

Hi, I’m Nathan. Play Dailies is my one-person project: a small collection of free daily puzzles, built around the idea that the best part of a puzzle is everyone getting the same one. Solve it, share your result, argue about the clue. That’s the whole site.

No accounts, no ads, no tricks — your progress lives in your browser and the puzzles change at midnight. If you only have five minutes a day for something that isn’t a feed, I’d love it to be this.

The games

Lockle

The one that started it all — crack a 5-digit combination lock using logic and deduction, five picks a day.

Mini Crossword

A compact 5×5 crossword with clever clues. A proper coffee-break solve, not an afternoon commitment.

Slide

A fresh picture every day, scrambled into a sliding-tile puzzle. Fewest moves wins bragging rights.

Feedback, clue complaints, puzzle ideas — I read all of it, and player input regularly shapes what gets built next. For how the site handles data (short version: it barely does), see the privacy policy.
