About Daily Loop (Slitherlink)

Daily Loop is a Slitherlink puzzle. The board is a lattice of dots with numbers in some of the squares. Tapping between two dots lights a segment, and the aim is to light segments that join into one closed loop with no branches or crossings. Each number says exactly how many of its four sides the loop uses, so a 0 stays dark all round. Every grid has exactly one solution and never needs a guess.

A single new grid arrives each day, the same for everyone, with a gentle climb in difficulty from Monday to Sunday. Beating the par time earns more stars, a banked freeze covers a day you miss, and a spoiler-free result card shows your colour, time and streak without a single segment of the answer. Optional Game Center boards compare the day's solve times and the longest streaks.

The loop glows in a neon theme of your choice, from Phosphor, Ion, Filament, Plasma and Ember, and the result card uses the same colour. There is no account and no login, and optional iCloud sync carries progress between your own devices.

The daily puzzle is free with no ads on the board, and Loop+ is a one-time unlock for unlimited practice at four difficulties. It is one of the single-puzzle daily apps from the maker of Daily Knot, and came out in July 2026.

Tips

• Start at the 0s: none of their sides are used, which fixes nearby segments.
• A 3 next to a 0 or in a corner forces most of its sides at once.
• The loop cannot end or branch, so every dot has either two lit segments or none.
• Watch the counter of numbers still to match at the bottom of the screen.
