About Sharkdle

Sharkdle is a -dle game for shark fans. The daily challenge has one mystery species, the same for everyone, and a profile with six traits: family, order, genus, size, depth and discovery. Each species you guess is compared with the mystery shark on all six, filling the profile in until you can pin it down.

The daily board offers Sharks, Relatives and Mixed sets and gives a number of attempts. Signed-in players can spend pearls, earned by playing, to reveal one trait.

If you get stuck, the Sharchive lists shark species with their classification, images and details, and can be filtered by what you have learned so far. It doubles as a field guide.

Beyond the daily game, Sharkdle has grown into a small world: an Infinite mode with XP, crates and streaks, a practice mode, a story map, a season pass, achievements, and daily, monthly and all-time leaderboards. An account is only needed to save stats and XP.

How to play Sharkdle

1. Press Play Daily Challenge.
2. Type a shark's name and press Guess.
3. Read how it compares with the mystery shark on family, order, genus, size, depth and discovery.
4. Use the matches to narrow the field and guess again.
5. Name the shark before your attempts run out.

Tips

• Start with a well-known shark from a big family: matching the order or family early saves guesses.
• Depth and size split similar species apart once you know the family.
• Use the Sharchive filter to list the species that fit what you know.
