Scuotes

Scuotes (scrambled plus quotes) takes a line that shaped culture and hides it. The quote sits in a grid with its words in their places, but its letters are shuffled across the whole quote, so a word can hold letters that belong to another. You put them right one move at a time. Three context clues help, opened one by one with Get Clue: Who said it, When and Where. If you are stuck, Get Hint reveals a letter you have not placed, up to three a puzzle.

Every day has its own theme, so the week has a rhythm: Sports Sunday, Movie Monday, TV Tuesday, Wildcard Wednesday, Throwback Thursday with quotes over a hundred years old, Freaky Friday for horror and the spooky, and Satire Saturday for sharp wit and commentary. Everyone gets the same quote each day. There is no points score; instead there are two daily leaderboards, one ranked by time and one by fewest moves. A Give Up button shows the answer, but you get no ranking that day.

The daily is free with no sign-up and no ads. Signing in tracks your results, and Lost Art Games' paid Squads (a 30-day free trial, then a few dollars a year per member) add a private leaderboard and a calendar of past puzzles.

Scuotes is one of six dailies from Lost Art Games, along with Letterbox, D3C1PH3R, fanimoji, 29GO and alikely. It suits players who like cryptograms and quote puzzles and enjoy a nudge of trivia in the clues.
