on riddl.ing

riddl.ing is a daily riddle by natto games. Each day there is one answer to find, a word such as strategy, and the clues arrive one by one, starting vague and ending close to a definition. Guess early for a better result, then share it or write a riddle of your own for friends.
About riddl.ing
riddl.ing is a small daily guessing game from natto games. Each day there is one answer, usually a single everyday word or a place, and the game describes it in the first person as a riddle that ends with the question What am I?
You see one clue to start. If your guess is wrong, the next clue appears, up to five in all. The early clues are deliberately open, a line like a cold one might make you sad, and the later ones close in until the last is nearly a giveaway, sometimes naming the first letter or a rhyme. Some answers accept more than one spelling. The fewer clues you need, the better your result, which you can share as a short summary.
The puzzle is dated, the same for everyone, and changes at midnight in your own time zone. The site also lets you write a riddle of your own to send to friends, and a setting makes the share text tidy for Discord.
It suits players who like a quick word puzzle that rewards lateral thinking more than vocabulary, and works well as a shared guess with family or a group chat.
