Gossipdle – Daily Logic Puzzle with a New Timed Challenge Mode

Hacker News

I built Gossipdle, a daily logic puzzle where you decide who is guilty or innocent in a 5×5 grid of 20 characters, using only logical clues (no guessing allowed). Each correct mark reveals a new clue, so you solve the puzzle as a chain of small deductions. Themes change daily (office gossip, campus drama, nightclubs, etc.), but the underlying puzzle is a clean Einstein-style logic grid. I’ve just shipped a Timed Challenge Mode: A separate puzzle from the main daily one (so you effectively get two puzzles per day) Difficulty-based time limits (Mon–Tue easier, Sat–Sun hardest, with more time) 3 attempts per day; when the timer hits zero, that run is over No hints in timed mode – pure reasoning under pressure State persists across refresh/close, and there are checks around New York midnight so you don’t start a run when there isn’t enough time left in the day If you like structured logic puzzles (Einstein riddles, nonograms, Sudoku-style deduction) and want a daily “thinky” game with a speedrun variant, I’d love feedback on: How the difficulty feels Whether the timed mode is fair/fun Any rough spots in the UX Link: [ https://www.gossipdle.com ]
