One mystery animal. Twenty guesses. A whole tree of life to explore.
Common Branch is a daily animal puzzle where every guess teaches you something. Identify the mystery species by following the biological relationships between animals—from broad groups down to families, genera, and species.
Make a guess and watch the tree grow. If your animal is not the answer, Common Branch reveals the closest taxonomic group it shares with the mystery species. Each branch gives you a meaningful new clue and helps you narrow the possibilities.
