Categordle

About Categordle

Categordle was created by Tiffany Chong, with Sophia Nguyen and Ng Yi Pin as editors, and calls itself a cozy little trivia game. Its cat theme runs through it: finding the hidden category is finding the cat, and the score is a Purrfection score.

Each puzzle has six clues set out on hexagons around the hidden category. Clues can be anything from a nickname for part of the body to a character in a Pixar film or a Pokemon. You choose a hexagon, type your answer and submit. As answers fall into place the link between them becomes clearer, and you can guess the category at any point.

Points come from each clue you solve, from finding the cat, and from finding it before you have solved every clue. Giving up on a clue reveals it, but costs you credit. Each puzzle has its own statistics and a share snippet, and past puzzles stay free to play.

It suits players who like general knowledge quizzes but enjoy a puzzle on top, where the six answers together point to one more answer.

How to play Categordle

1. Open Categordle to see the day's numbered puzzle.
2. Click a hexagon to choose a clue.

Tips

• Start with the clues you know for sure: two or three answers often reveal the category.
• Guess the category early if you see it: finding it before all clues are solved earns a bonus.
• Avoid giving up on clues, since each reveal costs you credit.
• Past puzzles are a good way to learn the kind of links the editors like.
