LOOP: three quick puzzles, one a day

LOOP is a small collection of free browser games at playspuzzle.com. Nothing to install and no sign-up. Open a game, play a round in a minute or two, and come back tomorrow for a fresh one. Everything runs right in your browser.

Each game has a daily puzzle: the same board appears for everyone worldwide on a given UTC day, so you and a friend in another country face the exact same challenge. Color Hunt asks you to spot the one tile that sits at a slightly different shade before the timer runs out. Daily Number gives you about six tries to crack a hidden four-digit number, with green, yellow, and gray clues guiding each guess. Merge Drop is a physics game where you drop balls, let two of the same size touch to merge into a bigger one, and try not to let the stack cross the top line. People play because the rounds are short, the daily board is shared, and there is a clear reason to return: a streak that grows the more days you keep up.

Tips to play better

In Color Hunt, let your eyes relax and scan for the tile that "hums" rather than staring at one spot. The odd shade may be easier to catch with a soft, wide gaze.

In Daily Number, spend your first guess on four different digits to learn which numbers are in play, then use the yellow clues to test new positions. You usually get six tries, with one fewer on the occasional Hard day, and a free unlimited Practice mode if you want more rounds.

In Merge Drop, keep your biggest balls in one corner and leave room above the stack so a bad drop does not push you over the top line.

Color Hunt and Merge Drop keep your best score and let you retry, so it is fine to take a risk and try to beat your own number.

Play a little every day. For Color Hunt and Merge Drop, finishing a daily run keeps your streak going, while Daily Number's streak needs an actual solve.
