FAQ

How do I play?

Each daily has ten Wikipedia subjects. Every round shows a redacted article title and about 300 words from the article. Type one answer, use the Redaction Remover Solvent for a hint if you need it, or give up and move to the next round.

What does the title color mean?

The redacted title is your strongest clue. When title words appear inside the article, they keep the same redaction color so repeated marks are easier to spot.

Can I replay older rounds?

Use the previous and next buttons beside the round label to review rounds you have already finished. The current active round stays locked in place until you guess or give up.

How does scoring work?

A correct answer scores 1. A miss or give-up scores 0. The daily maximum is 10.

What counts as a correct answer?

Titles, common aliases, redirects, normalized punctuation, accents, and unambiguous surnames for people are accepted when they map cleanly to the article.

How is time measured?

Round time counts only while the game is active. The timer pauses when the tab is hidden or the browser appears idle.

Why did I see a tour?

New browsers get a short tour on first load. You can open it again any time with the help button on the puzzle page.

What does Redactle Rush store?

The app stores your anonymous player id, theme choice, current game, completed games, quick-tour status, guesses, scores, and timing data in your browser.

Where do images come from?

Reveal images come from Wikipedia summary metadata and are cached in the app's Cloudflare KV when available.
