Rankle's daily puzzle Lie of the Land: rank six types of people, from politicians to nurses, by how many Britons trust them, with four guesses

Rankle is a daily ranking puzzle. Each day gives six items and a hidden order, such as phone makers by the year they were founded, and you have four guesses to arrange them correctly. Past puzzles sit in an archive, and weekly leagues let you compete with friends.

About Rankle

Rankle gives you one list to sort each day. The puzzle has a number and a date, puzzle 627 on 3 October 2026, and every player gets the same six items. On that day they were phone makers, from Nokia to Google, to be put in order of the year each was founded.

You drag the six items into the order you think is right and submit. The game tells you how many of the six sit in the right place, not which ones, and you rearrange them for the next try. You have four guesses to get the whole list in order, and the answer reveals the detail behind each item, such as the year.

An archive holds earlier puzzles, and weekly leagues let you play against friends. You can log in to keep your history, but you do not need to.

It suits trivia players who like a short daily puzzle where partial knowledge and good guesses both count.

Place the items you are surest of at the ends first; they anchor the middle.
Use each guess to test one or two swaps, so the feedback tells you which move helped.
