Daily Delve

A free daily video game trivia dungeon. Seven questions a day about games — a PS2 title, a Zelda character, a FromSoftware boss — and the rarer your answer, the more XP takes your adventurer down toward the boss floor.

ⓘ

Daily Delve only runs on its own site — one dungeon per day, free without sign-up. Unlike most rare-answer games, your score never depends on what other players typed: every answer's rarity is fixed before anyone plays.

How a delve works

One run takes about four minutes. Questions stay hidden until you reach them.

  1. 1
    Take the 30 seconds per question

    Each of the 7 questions asks you to name something from the world of games. A wrong guess doesn't end the question — keep typing until one scores or the clock dies.

  2. 2
    Whatever's typed at zero gets sent

    If time runs out mid-answer, whatever sits in the box is submitted as your last answer — a half-typed guess can still save the question.

  3. 3
    Score XP by preset rarity

    Every question ships with a fixed answer bank, and each answer's rarity is decided ahead of time from how familiar it is to gamers — 10 XP for the obvious pick, up to 100 for the hidden Easter Egg.

  4. 4
    Every 100 XP drops a floor

    XP is distance: B1 Mossy Cave, B2 The Sewers and deeper themed floors. A perfect 700 XP reaches the bottom and defeats the boss.

The five XP tiers

Rarity is fixed before anyone plays — the crowd can't move your score.

TierXPWhat it means
Main Quest10Common loot — the first answer most people think of
Side Quest30Uncommon — solid, and plenty of players went this way
Rare Drop60Rare — a genuinely uncommon pick. Nice find
Secret Area85Epic — proper deep knowledge. Few get here
Easter Egg100Legendary — the one hand-picked hidden answer for the question
After the run: the results screen reveals every answer for each question, rarest first — the fastest way to learn what "deep" actually means for each topic — plus a spoiler-free emoji grid to share.

How to delve deeper

Use the whole 30 seconds

Failed guesses cost nothing — only the clock does. Keep throwing answers until one lands instead of freezing on a blank.

Think era and region

"A PS2 game" rewards the cult classic over the best-seller. Japan-only releases, launch-window titles and genre deep cuts are where Secret Area XP lives.

Bank something before zero

Since the box auto-submits, leave a safe answer sitting there while you think — even 10 XP beats an empty submit.

Practice in the archive

Past dungeons stay open — replay them as practice (they never count toward XP or streaks) and study which answers score high.

FAQ

Is Daily Delve free?

Yes — the daily dungeon is free with no sign-up. A free account adds lifetime XP, streaks, weekly and all-time leaderboards, and wardrobe gear for your adventurer.

When does the new dungeon open?

Every day at 04:00 UTC — 4 am UK time (5 am during British Summer Time).

Can I replay yesterday's delve?

Results lock on the day, but every past dungeon sits in the archive — open it to see all answers and Easter Eggs, or replay it as practice. Practice never counts toward XP or the leaderboard.

What is the Easter Egg answer?

One hand-picked answer per question worth the full 100 XP — the deepest cut the editors hid in the answer bank.

Does my score depend on other players?

No — rarity is fixed in the answer bank before anyone plays. What the crowd typed never changes what your answer is worth.
