Daily5X is a five-clue anagram puzzle. Every answer in a puzzle is built from the same letters shown in the Letter Wheel.

Rules

1. Every blank uses an anagram of the same letters from the Letter Wheel.
2. Answers must use only letters from the shared set.
3. Each clue expects a word that fits both meaning and grammar in the sentence.
4. The puzzle is solved only when all blanks are correct.

How To Play

1. Click a blank to make it active.
2. Type your answer in the input box.
3. Press Place Word (or Enter) to submit.
4. Use Shuffle to rearrange the letter order for a new perspective.

Scoring And Progress

• Your puzzle status is shown as Not Started, In Progress, or Completed.
• Completed puzzles are stored locally in your browser.
• Your streak tracks consecutive completed puzzle dates.
• The solve timer runs from your first action until completion and records shuffle count.

Example (Concept)

If the shared letters are R E A C T, valid anagrams might include words like trace or crate. The correct answer depends on which word fits the clue text.

Update Cadence

A new puzzle is intended to be available daily. If today's exact date is not available yet, the site may temporarily show the most recent available puzzle.

FAQ

Do I need an account? No. Progress is stored locally in your browser.

Can I replay old puzzles? Yes. Use the Archive page to open earlier puzzles.

Why is my progress missing? Clearing browser data, switching browsers, or using private mode can remove local progress.

Daily5X is a daily word puzzle focused on anagrams, clue reading, and short-form solving. Each puzzle uses one shared letter set to produce five answers.

The site is designed to be fast, lightweight, and easy to play on desktop and mobile without requiring sign-in.

Archive replay, local progress tracking, and streaks are included so players can return to earlier puzzles and keep a solving history in their browser.

Questions, feedback, bug reports, or partnership inquiries are welcome.

In short: Daily5X has no accounts and never asks who you are. Your puzzle progress, times and streaks are stored in your own browser and are never sent to us. We do publish anonymous totals for each puzzle, such as how many people solved it. We show advertising through Google, which does use cookies.

Who is responsible

Daily5X is operated by Steven Baker, who is the data controller for the purposes of UK data protection law. For any privacy question, or to exercise the rights set out below, email hello@daily5x.com.

What stays on your device

The game uses your browser's local storage to remember which puzzles you have started and solved, the words you have entered, your solve times, your shuffle counts, your streak, and cached puzzle data so the site loads quickly. None of this is transmitted to us and none of it is linked to you. It stays on that browser until you clear it, and clearing it will reset your progress and streak.

Anonymous puzzle totals

When you press Start Game, and again if you finish a puzzle, the site sends a single message recording that a play or a solve happened, together with how long the solve took and how many shuffles were used. That message contains no name, account, cookie or device identifier, and nothing that could distinguish you from anyone else playing the same puzzle. It is added to a running total for that puzzle and shown publicly on the Archive page. Totals cannot be traced back to an individual, and we could not identify you from them ourselves.

Visitor measurement

We use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views and visitors. It does not use cookies, does not track you across other websites, and does not build a profile of you. Vercel processes this data on our behalf as our hosting provider.

Advertising

We show advertising supplied by Google AdSense. You should know the following:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.
• You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.
• More detail is in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

If you are in the UK or the European Economic Area you will be asked for your choices about advertising cookies before any are set for that purpose. You can change your mind at any time using the privacy options link provided by that consent notice. Declining personalised advertising does not stop you using the site; you will simply see less relevant ads.

Server logs

Like any website, our hosting provider records technical information when a page is requested, including your IP address, browser type and the page requested. This is used to deliver the site securely and to diagnose faults, and is held for a short period by the provider.

Legal basis

We rely on our legitimate interest in running and improving a free puzzle game for the anonymous puzzle totals and visitor measurement, neither of which identifies you. We rely on your consent for advertising cookies where consent is required, which is why you are asked.

Children

Daily5X is suitable for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access, correct, erase or restrict the personal data we hold about you, to object to processing, and to data portability. In practice we hold very little: your gameplay data is on your own device and can be erased by clearing your browser storage, and the puzzle totals are anonymous and cannot be linked to you. For anything relating to advertising data, Google holds that data and their policies apply.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Changes

If this policy changes materially we will update the date below and, where the change affects how your data is used, ask again for any consent required.
