Free one-a-day puzzles from Gamefinity: the same set for everyone each day, one go, and a result you can share.
Part of Wordle's appeal is the routine: one puzzle, the same for everyone, done in a few minutes and then compared with friends. The daily games below keep that routine. None of them is a word game, so they sit beside your Wordle rather than replacing it, and each one starts a new day at midnight Eastern Time.
Of these dailies, Dig Site plays most like Wordle: a hidden target, a fixed number of tries and an honest clue after each one that rules part of the board out.
Daily deduction hunt
Six digs per site to find an artefact in a 12×12 grid. The colour of the soil in each trench tells you the distance to the find, and a shard marks a shared row, column or diagonal. Read two or three clues together and only one square is left.

Daily numbers puzzle
Three number sums a day, from easy to hard: combine six cards with the four signs to hit each target exactly. Every sum is checked to have an answer, and a near miss still earns marks.

Play ExactlyDaily paper-folding puzzle
Five sheets of origami paper a day, each to be folded into the shape on its card within par. Every shape is proven foldable in exactly that many folds, and no sheet comes back for at least four months.

Play Daily IQThe five-letter guessing game Wordlock is not a daily puzzle: it deals new words every run, as often as you like. The unlimited page has it and the other word games you can replay straight away.
All four start a new day at midnight Eastern Time, the same moment for every player. Until then, today's set stays the same for everyone.
It depends on the game. Daily IQ keeps past days playable from its archive and has a Timed mode for practice. Dig Site, Exactly and Fold give you one go at each day, and Dig Site and Exactly have no practice round, so a day's result is always a first try.
No. They use a dig grid, numbers, paper and reasoning puzzles, which makes them a change of pace from Wordle rather than more of the same. For words, try Wordlock and the other games on the unlimited page.
