ILLUSTRATION · YOUR NEXT STREAK STARTS WITH ONE DAY
Every past puzzle, still there.↗
✧ More than a daily puzzle
Why people keep it installed
A quick brain break or a proper challenge. There’s always another reason to play.
Nothing is ever missed
Every past daily stays in the archive. Open the calendar, pick a day, play it. Archive plays are recorded but never touch your streak, so the streak stays an honest count of the days you actually showed up.
Play against people, not just the clock
Challenge a friend head to head on any of the nine games, or set a whole group going at once. Both players get the same board, and the result is ranked on solve first, then score, then time.
Progress that follows you
Play every game as a guest with no account. Sign in with Google or Apple whenever you like and your streaks, coins, level, achievements and half-finished grids move with you to the next device.
Streaks, levels and achievements
Coins for finishing, XP for winning, a level that climbs across every game, and a catalogue of achievements with a novice and a master badge for each game.
Leaderboards worth checking
Daily, weekly, all-time and friends-only boards. The weekly board runs on one shared window for everybody, because a competition on a different clock per player is not a competition.

Questions people ask
Accounts, streaks, offline play, and everything in between.
Is MindGlyph free?
Yes. MindGlyph is free to download and play on Android and iOS, with no subscription. It is supported by ads, and the coins you earn from playing can be spent on hints instead of watching one.
How many games are in the app?
Nine: Word Guess, Word Chain, Word Search, Crossword, Bee a Speller, Anagram, Cryptogram, Word Weave and Sudoku. Five of them publish a new daily puzzle; all nine can be played on demand and used to challenge a friend.
Do I need an account to play?
No. You can play every game as a guest without signing in. Signing in with Google or Apple is optional — it exists so your progress survives a new phone and so you can add friends.
Can I play offline?
Several games work with no connection — the dictionary and the puzzle libraries are stored on the device. Daily puzzles, leaderboards and challenges need a connection to sync.
Which devices does MindGlyph run on?
Android phones and tablets through Google Play, and iPhone and iPad through the App Store.
What happens to my streak if I miss a day?
The streak resets. You can still play the day you missed from the archive, and the result is recorded, but it does not restore the streak — the streak is a record of days played on the day, in your own timezone.
How do I delete my account and data?
From the app's settings, or from the account deletion page on this site. Deleting removes your profile and every row of progress attached to it.
