Daytl
Daily Calendar Puzzle
Fit the pieces to frame the date
No single right answer
— find yours
Cover every cell of the calendar except the current month, day, and weekday. Sounds simple. Plays harder. Some days fall together in a flash; some have you working around three cells while the kettle whistles.
What makes Daytl different
Most daily puzzles want you to find their answer.
Daytl helps you find yours.
Every puzzle here has many valid solutions. The solver and hints work with your choices instead of steering you toward one correct answer. They preserve what you've already built, helping you finish what you started rather than start over.
Three daily challenges
Dawn
The classic rectangular board. A bright, steady start to the morning.
Dusk
Same shape, different pieces and layout. A slower puzzle for the end of the day.
Honey
The hexagonal variant. Pieces rotate in six directions instead of four. A new way to think about fit.
Hints that honor your progress
Check
See which pieces are correctly placed and which need to move. Daytl works out a solution that keeps as many of your pieces correct as possible.
Reveal
Choose a piece and have it placed for you. Daytl works with your existing layout to find a position that fits your path to the finish.
Play your way
Use up to six hints per puzzle, or go purist with none at all. Entirely up to you.
Daily play
Replay, differently
One solution isn't the end. Because the solver adapts to your first few moves, a second pass produces a second solution. A third produces a third.
A small habit, tracked gently
Daytl tracks your streaks and times and saves them locally to your device. No leaderboards, no shouting, no nagging notifications — just your own progress.
If you enjoy tangrams, pentominoes, Wordle, or Connections, Daytl is your next daily habit.
Two minutes a day. That's the whole commitment.
