About Vroomdle

Vroomdle is a Wordle-style puzzle for drivers and car spotters. Each day has one numbered mystery car, the same for every player, and you have ten guesses to find it.

You type a brand or model into the search box and pick a car from the list. The game then lays out six tiles for that guess: brand, country of origin, car type, the year the model was introduced, how many generations it has had, and its engine type. Each tile turns green when it matches the mystery car, yellow when it is close, and stays plain when it is wrong, so a run of guesses narrows things down from, say, a Japanese hatchback with a petrol engine to the one model that fits.

A new car comes out every day at midnight UTC, and an archive lets you replay every past puzzle since the game launched. Besides the main daily, the site has themed modes for Japanese domestic market cars, American cars and older classics.

It suits anyone who knows their cars by more than their badge; the generation and year clues reward people who follow model histories.

How to play Vroomdle

1. Type a car brand or model into the search box and choose a car from the list.
2. Read the six tiles: brand, country, type, year introduced, generations and engine.
3. Green means the tile matches, yellow means it is close, plain means it is wrong.
4. Use what you learn to pick a closer car, and find the mystery car within ten guesses.

Tips

• Open with a common car from a big brand to test country, type and engine at once.
• Use the year and generations tiles together: a model with many generations is usually an older nameplate.
• Missed a day? The archive keeps every past puzzle.
