Estimate Me is the jar-of-sweets guessing game as a daily puzzle. Each day there is a new photo of real objects, such as caramel popcorn in a mug, and a question about how many there are; you have three guesses to get as close as you can.
About Estimate Me
Estimate Me is a daily game by aukspot, who also curates The DLES, a large directory of daily games. It takes the classic fairground challenge of guessing how many sweets are in a jar and makes a fresh one every day, built by hand with real objects and real photographs.
Each puzzle asks a single question, for example how many pieces of caramel popcorn are in a mug, and shows one or more photos from different angles, which you can enlarge. You type a number on the keypad and submit; you have three guesses, and the game tells you how close you came.
Each dated puzzle is the same for every player, and earlier days are in the archive. Players can also send in their own puzzle ideas.
It suits anyone who likes Fermi-style reasoning or simply wants a one-minute daily guess with a satisfying reveal.
