What's your favourite -dle? (Daily puzzle game?) (sh.itjust.works)

I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.

I've tried worldle, but I'm crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.

Any recommendations?

that's awesome!

Is there a way to play previous ones? That's something that always bothers me in these daily puzzles

[–] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Unfortunately not. There are several books released though. I have the first one, it's pretty fun and a nice way to occupy oneself with a break from screens.

I noticed that the code is quite open to check, so currently I'm poking around the code to see what functions to call to reset the puzzle to a specific date or a random generated one.

It's a bit tricky

So, I have my games on an old phone to not clutter my phone. What I do with these is just change the date on your phone, and that day's puzzle should unlock for you. But that's the benefit of having it on another phone so it doesn't fuck up your messages and other stuff.

P.s. I'm assuming this is played on a phone, if not, just ignore my suggestion, but this could work on any device.
