Crowdle

Crowdle, also at crowdle.gg, is one of the daily games from PZL games, the puzzle site of Perfect Level Games Ltd. Its idea is close to the TV game Family Feud: the answers are not right or wrong in themselves, only more or less popular.

Each day there is one prompt, put to roughly 10,000 PZL players. Your job is to find the top four answers, shown as four empty tiles numbered 1 to 4. You can guess as many times as you like, but guesses must be real words. A guess that matches one of the top four fills its tile; answers ranked 5 to 10 show beneath the grid as close answers, so you can see you are on the right track. Some answers are grouped together as aliases, so a plural or near-synonym can still count.

You have three hints, each showing another letter of the next answer you still need. At the end you can share how you did with friends who played the same prompt.

Today's prompt plays free in the browser with no account, at crowdle.gg or on the PZL games site, and earlier prompts can be played from the archive. The layout is a plain grid of four coloured tiles that works the same on a phone and a desktop.

It suits players who like word association and guessing how other people think rather than testing facts.
