What is Guessday?
Guessday is a small collection of original puzzle games that each take about three minutes a day. Every game gives everyone in the world the same puzzle on the same calendar day, so you can compare results with friends, coworkers or your group chat without spoiling the answer: the share button posts a grid of colored dots, never the solution.
Each game is built on real, public data rather than trivia written by a quiz master: Blind Ticker uses the financial statements that US-listed companies file with regulators, so you read the clues the way an analyst reads a filing; Sticker Shock uses decades of average prices collected by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, so every price you guess is what Americans actually paid for eggs, gas, bread or coffee in that year; Trail Mix uses the National Park Service’s visitor statistics and official park boundaries; Baby Boom uses the Social Security Administration’s baby name records since 1880; Rain Check uses NOAA’s 30-year climate normals for U.S. cities; Newly Minted uses Google Books Ngram data on how often words appear in books since 1800; Line of Work uses the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ wage statistics and employment projections for U.S. jobs; and Daily Value uses USDA’s FoodData Central nutrient data for everyday foods.
How the daily puzzles work
A new puzzle unlocks at midnight in your own time zone. Your progress, streak and statistics are saved only in your browser. There are no accounts, no downloads and nothing to install. If you miss a day, the archive lets you play every past puzzle, and unlimited mode serves fresh rounds whenever you want more practice.
Fair play
Hints are optional. A free hint adds a 💡 to your shared result, while a hint unlocked by watching an optional short ad is not marked. Answer explanations only open after you finish that day’s puzzle, and we keep the data behind each game documented on its data page.
