Games like LoLdle: daily guess-the-character games

The nearest relatives come from LoLdle's own maker. Dotadle does the same for Dota 2 heroes, with quote, ability and loading screen modes; Smashdle covers Super Smash Bros. fighters, Narutodle the Naruto cast and Onepiecedle the One Piece crew. They share LoLdle's layout, its time zone setting and an Infinite mode for practice, so moving between them takes no learning.

For other team games, Overwatchdle, Valodle, Apexdle, Rivalsdle and Daily Deadlock run the same trait-comparison puzzle with their own heroes, agents and legends, usually beside quote, ability, emoji and picture rounds. Valodle adds a weapon skin and a map callout, and Daily Deadlock offers a Normal and a Hard version of each mode. Brawldle and Royaledle do the same for Supercell's Brawl Stars and Clash Royale.

Pokédle at pokedle.today is a good pick if you prefer a huge cast: five daily ways to find one Pokémon, from stats and a silhouette to its cry. Zeldle splits the Legend of Zelda into a character, an item, a game and a sword each day. CharDle goes wide instead, with a daily puzzle for more than 100 film, TV, anime and game franchises.

Start with whichever game you play most: the classic mode takes a minute or two, and the extra modes are optional.
