Animaldle Classic Match daily board after two guesses, Eurasian eagle-owl and Asian lion, with clue cells for class, order, biome, life span, speed, weight, diet and continents

Animaldle is a daily animal guessing game. In its Classic Match mode you name any species and see how it compares with the hidden animal on taxonomy, diet, biome and size, with ten guesses to find it. Seven more daily modes cover animal stats, habitats, photos and groups. It is free in the browser with no account.

About Animaldle

Animaldle takes the guess-the-thing format of the -dle games to the animal kingdom. Its main daily is Classic Match: one hidden species, the same for everyone that day, and ten hearts for guesses. You type a name and pick the species from photo cards that appear as you type. Each guess adds a row of columns: class, order, biome, life span, top speed, weight, length, diet, population status and continents. A green cell matches, an amber one partly matches, and arrows on the numbers say whether the hidden animal is bigger, faster or longer lived. All the daily rounds reset at midnight UTC.

Around it sit seven more modes, each with a daily round and a random one for extra play. High/Low compares weight, lifespan or speed. Habitat asks you to click every continent where an animal lives. Photo shows a pixelated wildlife picture to identify. Venn sorts species into taxonomic sets, Connections groups animals by a hidden shared trait, Snap is thirty seconds of yes or no, and Reverse shows the animal and asks for its traits.

The site is styled like a field guide, has no ads and no sign-up, and keeps your stats and streaks in the browser. On a phone the clue table scrolls sideways. It suits players who know their wildlife and like the deduction of narrowing down a species from its classification.

How to play Animaldle

  1. Open Classic Match (Daily) and type the name of any animal, then pick it from the photo cards that appear.
  2. Read the clues: each trait of your guess is marked as matching the hidden animal or not.
  3. Use the matching taxonomy, diet, biome and size to pick a closer animal.
  4. Name the hidden animal before your ten hearts run out, then try the other daily modes.

Tips

  • Start with a broad guess such as a common mammal to learn the hidden animal's class quickly.
  • Once the class matches, work down the tree: order and family cut the options far more than size does.
  • Play the random rounds of each mode for practice; they do not use up the daily.
