Daily Unfold is a paper-folding puzzle you can do in a minute and think about for longer. Every day you get a square of paper, folded along a few lines, with a hole punched straight through it. Your job is to picture where those holes land when the paper opens flat, and tap the grid to mark them. That is the whole game. No clutter, no ads, no nagging. HOW IT WORKS 1. A sheet is folded along the dashed lines, always toward you. 2. A hole is punched through every layer of the folded stack. 3. You predict where the holes appear once it unfolds. WHAT YOU GET - Three fresh puzzles every day: easy, medium, and hard. - A timed Expert arena with a global leaderboard, unlocked once you finish the day's three. - Streaks for every day you complete. - A growing archive of every past puzzle. It is a calm daily ritual built on real spatial reasoning, the same fold-and-punch idea you have seen on aptitude tests, generated fresh from scratch every day so no two are alike. The daily puzzles and the Expert arena are free forever, with no ads. Unfold+ is an optional one-time purchase that unlocks the full archive of past days. Made by one person.
