Rules & strategy

How to play Triple Daily

Find one word that satisfies three distinct definitions. You get one guess for each clue, for a maximum of three guesses.

The rules

1. Clue 1 is visible when the puzzle begins.
2. Submit one single-word guess. Letter case does not matter.
3. A correct guess solves the case immediately.
4. A wrong guess is consumed and unlocks the next clue.
5. After a third miss, the answer and all three explanations are revealed.

A worked example

Each definition points to the exact same spelling, but the meanings belong to finance, geography, and aviation.

Strategy tips

• Keep several possibilities alive after the first clue instead of committing to its most obvious answer.
• When a new clue appears, switch semantic domains completely. A noun may also work as a verb.
• Look for common short words with concrete and figurative uses.
• Do not hunt for letter patterns: Triple gives semantic clues, not spelling hints.

Common questions

Is there a new Triple Daily puzzle every day?

Yes. The active case follows your browser’s local calendar date.

Does progress sync across devices?

No. Triple Daily requires no account, so progress is saved only in this browser profile.

Can I replay a finished puzzle?

Not through the normal interface. A completed daily case stays closed until the date changes.

Are obscure dictionary meanings used?

The puzzle can be difficult, but the intended senses should be established and recognizable rather than archaic trivia.
