Use Your Words
Puzzle fans the world over have made NYT Games part of their morning routine, and for good reason: Its massive library includes traditional crosswords and bite-size Daily Minis, the beloved guessing game Wordle, and other linguistic challenges—plus numbers games like the domino-matching Pips. We love tracking our stats and streaks—and outranking friends on the leaderboards.
Speed + Smarts = Success
How quickly can you count? In Destructomath+’s intense 60-second rounds, swipe through a grid of digits to make the numbers you connect add up to a target total. The quicker you are, the more points you’ll earn. Think fast!
Clever Conundrums
Co-created by indie-game maestro Zach Gage, Puzzmo serves up new puzzles each day that put a fun twist on a familiar game. In Puzzmo’s crossword, for example, the helpful hints are themselves a form of wordplay. Or try the inventive Weather Memoku, a heady blend of sudoku, memory matching, and your local forecast.
Where Are You?
GeoGuessr drops you into a 360-degree panoramic street view somewhere on Earth and challenges you to figure out where you are on the map. The closer your guess is to the specific location, the higher your score! Whether you’re playing alone or competing against pals online, it’s a blast tapping around the location looking for clues in street signs and restaurant names.
