What it does
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built The Daily Five because I wanted a word game that felt a little more challenging than the usual daily puzzles — so I kept it at 5 letters but added a 6th guess to keep it fair. It's completely free, no account needed, no ads. Just open it and play. A new word drops every day, and there's an archive of past puzzles if you want to practice more. Would love any feedback — especially on mobile feel and word difficulty. Thanks for checking it out! 🙏
Five free daily word puzzles. Play The Daily Five word game, The Daily Scramble, Trivia, and more. No sign-up needed.
Guess the hidden 5-letter word in six tries. A new word drops every day at midnight. Five letters, all mixed up. Tap them in the right order as fast as you can. Timer starts on first tap. One trivia question per day. One shot to answer. Get it right and earnfrom thedailyfive.net

I've been playing Wordle and remembered this puzzle game I used to play with my grandfather. It's inspired by the block puzzles in many newspapers but made to be shorter: just guess the nine letter word. So I made a quick thing to play with my family like we used to. I thought you guys might enjoy it.

Word Slicer2024 · wordslicer.com · ▲85I shared Word Slicer here a while back — it’s a free, ad-free, browser-based word game where you try to find 5 words in 5 minutes. Since then I’ve been improving it (daily challenge archive, cleaner UI, better stats), and I’d love more feedback from the HN crowd. In particular, I’m interested in thoughts on the gameplay flow, design/UX, and what would make it more engaging.

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
