Dayzzle is a puzzle that challenges you to arrange a collection of shapes on a calendar grid, leaving a single date (month and day) exposed. Find a solution for today, and then start all over again tomorrow. Try to find a solution for every day of the month. Or, try to find every possible solution for today. If you're stuck, ask for a hint.
