Five colors. Same for everyone on Earth. You get one shot. No pressure.
The Daily challenge works like a colour Wordle: one run, once per day, against the same five colours every other player in the world is seeing. The target colours are seeded from the calendar date in UTC, so there’s no luck-of-the-draw advantage between players — a 42 in London and a 42 in Tokyo are directly comparable. The format is standard Solo Easy: four-second flash, three sliders, no decoys. After the run you can post your score once per nickname per day and see what percentile of today’s field you landed in.
We pass the UTC date through a deterministic seeded generator to produce the day’s five colours. Every player who plays today gets the exact same five targets in the exact same order. The day rolls over at midnight UTC, which means players in different time zones may experience it as “morning” or “late evening”, but the colour set is shared globally for that 24-hour window.
The single biggest mistake is playing Daily as your warm-up run. The leaderboard records your first posted run and you only get one entry per nickname per day, so the first round of Daily is also your worst-calibrated round of the day. Play a couple of rounds of Solo Easy first to wake your eye up, then play Daily as a deliberate session. Pay extra attention to round one — most players score lowest on it for exactly this reason.
Each round is scored 0–10 with CIEDE2000, the perceptual colour difference formula recommended by the International Commission on Illumination. Five rounds, 50 points possible. The Daily leaderboard sorts by total score and ties go to the earlier post. There’s a separate Daily filter on the main leaderboard page so you can see today’s top scorers, this week’s, and the all-time best Daily runs ever posted.
