About

BondWizard

Features
Read full description

BondWizard is a daily puzzle suite for people who want their brain working but don't want to be yelled at by an app. Eight original games, one new puzzle each, every single day. WHAT YOU GET DAILY • Tangle — a 4×4 or 5×5 word grid where every row and column already spells a word. Swap the letters until everything reads cleanly. No clues. The marquee weekend game. • Solo — peg solitaire on a different shape each day of the week. Triangle, diamond, heart, octagon, English cross. Earn bronze, silver, gold by clearing the board the right way. • Tumble — five scrambled words a day, growing in length from four letters to eight. Anagram lint guarantees the answer is always unique. • Wedges — six trivia questions across six fixed categories: history, science, geography, sports, language, screen. Build the sandwich one layer at a time. • Sides — twelve items, one yes-or-no question. Tap the ones that fit. Confess what you actually know. • Timelines — six events from a single theme, in the wrong order. Drag them into chronological place. Score in rounds. • Consessant — five things to rank from most popular to least. Reveal shows how Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers actually ranked them. Find out which generation you really belong to. • Contrarian — six binary picks across six everyday categories. Real-time crowd data reveals where you're alone on your hot takes. WHY BONDWIZARD • No streaks, no notifications guilt-tripping you, no rewatching a paywall video to keep playing. Daily means daily. • Built on real generational data: when you finish Consessant or Contrarian, you see your generation's actual responses, not a fake leaderboard. • Local time, local quiet. Today's puzzles drop at midnight in your time zone. No worry about whether you missed a day in some other country. • Free. The whole suite. No ads tucked between rounds, no premium tier locking the marquee game. Just eight puzzles a day.
