Today's Honkaidle board on desktop with three guesses, Dr. Ratio, Himeko and Kafka: green cells for Male, 5 stars, Erudition and Cosmic, red for the rest

Honkaidle is a free browser guessing game for Honkai: Star Rail fans. Each day there is one hidden character from the game; you pick any character by name and a table shows which of their five traits match the answer, until you find it. There is no limit on guesses, and a countdown shows when the next character arrives.

About Honkaidle

Honkaidle takes the Wordle idea and applies it to the cast of Honkai: Star Rail, HoYoverse's turn-based space fantasy game. There is one hidden character a day, the same for everyone who plays, and the page names the previous day's answer under the search box so you can check how yesterday went.

You play by typing a character's name into the search field and picking it from the list that drops down. Each guess adds a row with the character's portrait and five clues: Gender, Stars (the rarity, 4 or 5), Path, Element and Origin, the faction or place the character comes from, such as the Astral Express, the Stellaron Hunters or Cosmic for characters from elsewhere. A green cell means that trait matches today's character and a red cell means it does not, so each guess narrows the field. There is no limit on guesses; when you find the character the page says Correct, names it and counts down to the next one.

The day's character comes from a fixed list in the page's code, counted from 19 June 2024 by your device's date, over a roster of 89 characters. A character returns after about two and a half months on average, sometimes much sooner, and the list as it stands runs to 20 March 2027.

The game comes from the same makers as ZZZdle and Impactdle, which do the same for Zenless Zone Zero and Genshin Impact with the same layout, and the sites link to each other at the bottom of the page. It plays in the browser with no account. Google ads run on the page: an inline ad link beside yesterday's answer and an anchor bar at the foot of the screen.

It suits Star Rail players who know the roster well and want a short daily check of that knowledge, or anyone already playing the sibling games.

How to play Honkaidle

  1. Open honkaidle.com and click the search field under Guess today's character.
  2. Type the start of any Honkai: Star Rail character's name and pick it from the list that appears.
  3. Read the new row: green cells for Gender, Stars, Path, Element and Origin match the hidden character, red cells do not.
  4. Keep guessing, with no limit on tries, until the character itself turns up; the page then names it and counts down to the next one.
  5. Keep guessing until the character itself turns up; come back the next day for a new one.

Tips

  • Start with a character whose Path and Element are common, so a red cell rules out a large group.
  • Origin is often the clue that settles it: once it is green, only a handful of characters remain.
  • Check yesterday's answer under the search box: the schedule can bring the same character back within days, though most return only after a couple of months.

Questions

Is Honkaidle free?

Yes. It plays in the browser with no sign-up, and the page carries Google ads around the board.

What clues does Honkaidle give?

Each guess shows the character's gender, star rarity, Path, Element and origin, each marked green when it matches the hidden character and red when it does not.

When does Honkaidle reset?

At midnight on your own device's clock: the page picks the day's character by your local date and shows a countdown to the next one once you have solved it.

How many guesses do I get?

As many as you need. There is no limit; the game simply counts down to the next character once you find today's.

Who makes Honkaidle?

The same team behind ZZZdle and Impactdle; the three sites link to each other and share an account on X.
