The daily logic puzzle

Every day there is one new Noodle Slurp box, and everyone who plays on the same date gets the same one. Solve it, compare with friends, and come back tomorrow for the next one. Two more of our games have a daily challenge too.

How it works

  1. Open today's puzzle. Everyone playing on the same date gets the same bento box of noodles. It changes at midnight on your device.
  2. Tap a noodle to slide it out in the direction its head points. It only moves if the straight line from its head to the edge of the box is clear. Tapping a blocked noodle bumps it and costs one of your 3 hearts.
  3. Hold a noodle to peek at its way out before you tap. The first thing in the way is ringed in red, and peeking never costs a heart.
  4. Empty the whole box. Slurps that follow each other quickly build your slurp combo, and a bump resets it.
  5. Copy your result. You get your hearts, your time and a small grid of emoji squares that sums up your run without revealing the solution, so you can post it anywhere without spoiling it for others.

How hard is it?

The daily box is built by the same generator as the main levels and scored by the same solver, which measures how many noodles there are, how long the chains of blockers run and how many noodles look free but are not. Weekday boxes aim for the game's Hard band and weekend boxes for Expert, about the level of the main game's levels 80 to 100. Every box is proven solvable before you see it, so there is always a way out.

There is no countdown, only hearts, so take your time and look before you tap. Your time is recorded for the share card, but a careful solve beats a fast one with a lost heart.

Why a daily puzzle?

A shared puzzle is more fun than a private one. When everybody has the same box, you can swap results in a group chat, see who kept all three hearts and argue about the best first move. It also makes for a nice habit: one short, thoughtful logic puzzle with your morning coffee.

New to Noodle Slurp?

Start with the main Noodle Slurp levels to learn how noodles block each other. The early boxes are gentle, and by the time you reach the tighter ones you will read a daily puzzle at a glance.

Two more daily challenges

Pebble Rescue has the Daily Rescue: one level a day, remixed from the hand-made levels with new gem colours and a new look, and often mirrored. Everyone gets the same one on the same date. Open the game and tap the Daily Rescue button on the title screen, then keep your streak going.

Tumble Tube has a daily run called today's mountain. Everyone rides the same slope on the same date, and you can share your distance and how much of the mountain you painted.
