## What is Riddonkulous?

Riddonkulous is a riddle game you solve letter by letter. Read the riddle, then arrange the letter tiles into the answer. Watch out: decoy letters are mixed in to throw you off.

CLIMB THE LADDER
1000 hand-picked riddles, from easy warm-ups to real head-scratchers. Every 10th riddle is a boss: a hard classic that tests what you have learned. Earn up to three stars per riddle by solving it without help.

THEMED CAMPAIGNS
Gods of Olympus, Bread & Circuses, Aqueducts & Arches, The Forum and Lions & Legions: 25 riddles each around one theme. The first 3 riddles of every campaign are free to try, and each one unlocks for good with a single purchase.

STUCK? YOU HAVE OPTIONS
Spend coins on three levels of hints, reveal a letter, clear the decoys, or skip a riddle and come back to it later. Every first solve earns coins and XP, bosses pay double, and each new level brings a bonus.

PLAY ANYWHERE
Everything is on your phone. No account, no internet needed. Your progress is saved automatically.

MADE FOR EVERYONE
Family-friendly riddles with no dark humor. Sound effects and haptics can be switched off in Settings.

OPTIONAL EXTRAS
Short ads appear occasionally after the first ten riddles. Watch a video for extra coins when you want them, or remove ads for good with a single one-time purchase.

Can you reach the top of the ladder?
