Today’s shared puzzle
Everyone gets the same Loop Loom board for each UTC date — today is the current UTC date. A new one arrives at 00:00 UTC.
What makes these games tick
SwitchPop asks you to tap a shape facing a given direction — then, every five correct answers, quietly changes what “facing” means. It’s a reaction game about reading carefully under a little pressure.
Loop Loom is a calm daily logic puzzle. Turn tiles on a 4×4 board to make one thread that passes three numbered stars in order. Every board is checked by a solver before it’s published, so each one has exactly one solution.
EchoStep is a memory game with a spatial twist: sometimes you have to replay the pattern as if the board had turned a quarter-turn clockwise.
Questions
- Is it really free?
- Yes. There’s nothing to buy, no account and, right now, no advertising.
- Where are my scores saved?
- Only in your own browser’s local storage. We don’t run servers that receive your scores, so there are no global leaderboards — your personal best is just for you. You can clear it any time on the privacy page.
- Will these games make me smarter?
- We don’t claim that. They’re designed to be fun, fair and quick — not to measure or improve intelligence.
- Can I play without a mouse or without seeing animations?
- Yes. All three games work with a keyboard, respect reduced-motion settings and have text-based alternatives. See accessibility.
