About Daily Puzzle (Radikal Solutions)

Daily Puzzle has two stages that depend on each other. Stage one is a numbers round: you get five tiles, such as 2, 5, 8, 13 and 15, and the four operations, and you try to reach a target like 307. Hitting it exactly earns three stars, and getting close earns one or two.

Stage two is a word round in the Wordle style: a five-letter word and six tries, with green and grey tiles after each guess. The twist is that each star from the numbers round reveals a letter before you type anything, so a strong first stage leaves the word half open and a weak one leaves you starting cold.

The puzzle is new every day at midnight UTC and the same for everyone. The app keeps streaks and statistics, offers streak freezes for missed days, and makes one share card for both stages that shows your pattern without giving away the answer. There is no account and no countdown timer. It suits players who like both Countdown-style arithmetic and five-letter word games and want them done in about five minutes.

How to play Daily Puzzle (Radikal Solutions)

1. Open Daily Puzzle to see the day's target number and five tiles.
2. Combine tiles with plus, minus, times and divide to get as close to the target as you can.
3. Lock in your stars: an exact hit earns three, a near miss fewer.
4. In stage two, guess the five-letter word in six tries, starting with the letters your stars revealed.
5. Share your result card, which shows your pattern but not the answer.

Tips

• Multiply the two largest tiles first to see how far the target is, then adjust with the small ones.
• An exact hit is worth it: every extra star is a free letter in the word stage.
• Use the revealed letters to rule out whole word families before your first guess.
