The Daily (Scadu Games)
A school-themed desk of word, maths and knowledge puzzles, new each day.
Every day: A daily set across twelve puzzle modes (Wordle-style word games, a word builder, hidden equations and trait-matching quizzes), the same for every player, with a separate streak for each mode. New puzzle: Midnight Pacific Time.
The Daily is a Steam collection of twelve short puzzle modes with a school theme: Wordle-style word games and their variants, a word builder, equation guessing and quizzes about animals, countries and elements. Everyone gets the same daily set, and each mode keeps its own streak.
About The Daily (Scadu Games)
The Daily is by Scadu Games and came out on Steam for Windows at the end of September 2026. It gathers twelve puzzle modes on a classroom desk. Wordy is a hidden-word game with exact, misplaced and absent letter clues, and five variants twist it: Anti-Wordy, where you must avoid the answer; Locked-Wordy, where every clue you reveal must be used; Hidden-Wordy, which tells you only how many letters match; No-Wordy, where the letters disappear and only the colours stay; and SubWordy, where you make as many words as you can from nine letters.
Mathy hides an equation for you to find, at easy, medium and hard levels. The Match games ask you to identify an animal, vehicle, country, U.S. state or chemical element by comparing real traits and statistics with your guesses.
Every player gets the same daily set, and a new one arrives at midnight Pacific Time. Each mode keeps its own streak and statistics, finished boards can be reopened, and optional hints help without giving the answer. Outside the daily, custom games let you practise without limit with your own word lengths, board counts and difficulty. Playing earns coins for backgrounds, panel styles and feedback colours. The developer has announced private multiplayer leagues for friends.
It suits players who already do several browser dailies and want a set of them in one place, played at their own pace.

Tips
- Each mode has its own streak, so you can keep the ones you like going without playing all twelve.
