How to play Eurodle
Guess today’s mystery EuroLeague player in 8 tries. Every guess shows six tiles that tell you how close you are, and arrows that point toward the answer.
Start today’s puzzleMake a guess
Type a name and pick the player from the list. Any player on a EuroLeague roster counts, and each player can only be guessed once. There is no penalty for a wild guess beyond using one of your 8 tries, so start broad and narrow down.
Read the six tiles
Green: exact match.
Yellow: close, but not exact.
Grey: not a match.
| Tile | Green | Yellow |
|---|---|---|
| Club | Same club | No close match: same club or nothing |
| Nationality | Same country | Same region (see below) |
| Position | Same position | The next position along PG–SG–SF–PF–C |
| Height | Same height | Within 3 cm |
| Age | Same age on the puzzle day | Within 2 years |
| Jersey number | Same number | Within 2 |
Height, age and jersey number also carry an arrow when they are not exact. Up means the answer is taller, older or wears a higher number; down means shorter, younger or lower. Ages are counted on the day of the puzzle.

One hint
After 4 wrong guesses you can reveal one hint. It shows the answer’s value for the first column, from club to jersey number, that none of your guesses has matched exactly yet. Using it is up to you, and your shared result says whether you did.
One player a day
Six green tiles and you have solved it. Run out of 8 guesses and the answer is revealed. A new player drops every day at midnight UTC, and everyone gets the same one.
Only today’s puzzle can be played. The archive keeps every day you played, so you can look back at your boards.
Streaks and stats
Each day you solve adds to your streak. One streak freeze is used automatically each calendar month: it covers a missed or lost day, so the streak survives. Your stats show your streaks, win rate and how many guesses your wins took. Everything is saved in this browser, with no account.
Share without spoilers
When you finish, copy your result as rows of coloured squares. It shows how you got there without naming anyone.
