Features & Capabilities

GIST now helps protect your daily puzzle from spelling mistakes, so mistyped words won’t cost you a guess.

Every day, a new puzzle is waiting. Your job is to guess the one word that captures the essence of a paragraph — revealed one sentence at a time.

Each wrong guess reveals another sentence as a clue. You have 5 attempts. Simple rules, surprisingly tricky.

GIST is a daily word puzzle that takes less than a minute to play — but might stay with you all day.

How it works:

  • One sentence is shown as your first clue
  • Guess the one word that captures its meaning
  • Wrong or close guesses reveal more sentences
  • Solve it in as few guesses as possible
  • A new puzzle every day

Features:

  • Daily puzzles with varying difficulty — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Wildcard
  • Puzzle archive to catch up on missed days
  • Play past puzzles anytime
  • Share your results with friends
  • Personal stats including win rate, streak, and guess distribution
  • No account needed — just open and play
  • Free to play

Why GIST? Most word games test your vocabulary. GIST tests something different — your ability to read between the lines, find the essence of an idea, and express it in a single word. It's part reading comprehension, part lateral thinking, part intuition. New puzzle every day at midnight. Can you get the GIST?
