Ruse: Daily Brain Puzzle

Solving today's puzzle is free, every day. Ruse Plus opens the archive of every past day to replay, and gives hints one step at a time, so you take only what you need.

One logic puzzle a day, composed on your own iPhone the morning you open it, and checked for solvability before it ever reaches you: solvable by deduction alone, with exactly one answer.

That puzzle has never existed before, and it is not the puzzle anyone else is solving today. There is no streak to protect either. You work it out, the key step clicks quietly into place, the elegant trick of it is revealed, and you are done for the day.

VERIFIED FAIR BEFORE YOU SEE IT

You never have to trust that a setter got it right. Every daily puzzle is invented on your phone and then checked for solvability before it is shown to you, so it is always fair: solvable, with exactly one answer. Pure deduction gets you there. Guessing is never the way in.

NEVER A RE-RUN, NEVER A DOWNLOAD

Today's puzzle is not fetched from a server and it is not a rotation of something you already played. It is composed on your device, that morning, for you.

Open Ruse and today's puzzle is already there, composed and waiting.

WHAT IS FREE, FOREVER

• Today's puzzle: the full solve and the full reveal, every single day.

WHAT RUSE PLUS ADDS

• The archive: every past day's puzzle, to browse and replay.
• Solve as many as you like, whenever you like.
• Choose your challenge: quick, considered, or devious.
• Staged hints, for when you want to stay in flow.

Ruse Plus comes as a weekly subscription, an annual subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Full prices and terms are at the bottom of this page.

FULLY OFFLINE

There is no internet, no account, and no sign-up. Ruse works the same in airplane mode as it does on wifi, because there is nothing for it to reach. No ads, no tracking, nothing to collect. Nothing leaves your phone.

THE FEEL OF IT

A quiet, drafting-table calm. Ruse is built to be the best two minutes of your morning, not a slot machine. No streak, no leaderboard, no XP, no badges. What keeps you coming back is the puzzle, not a number you are afraid to break.

When you finish, you are finished. There is no counter to protect and no notification chasing you back into the app.

Ruse makes no brain-training or cognitive-improvement claim. It is a calm puzzle game, nothing more.
