About this game

Four puzzle games. One clock. Everybody else.

Reign Days runs real tournaments all day. Every hour a new one starts in Sudoku, Minesweeper, Nonograms and Word Search — at every difficulty, all at the same time. Open the app, join whichever one you came for, solve the same board everyone else is solving, and find out where you placed.

EVERY GAME, EVERY DIFFICULTY, EVERY HOUR
• Sudoku, Minesweeper, Nonograms (Picross) and Word Search
• Easy, Medium and Hard running side by side, so whatever you feel like is already on
• Join any time the window is open — your clock starts when you do, so arriving late never costs you a place [clock]
• Windows run for hours: the tournament you spotted at lunch is still going in the evening [clock]

FAIR BY DESIGN
Everyone gets the same board and the same number of minutes. You are ranked on cells solved first and time second, so there is no luck, no energy bar and nothing to wait for. Three wrong answers ends your run, which is what makes solving fast worth something. Run out of clock and every cell you did fill still counts.

RACE THE PLACE ABOVE YOU
The clock in a Reign Days game does more than count down. It shows what the next place up is going to cost you — "1st place in 2:37" — and retargets to second the moment that time goes by. You always know exactly what you are chasing.

CALL OUT YOUR FRIENDS
• Add friends and challenge them into a specific tournament
• See their time to beat and your head-to-head record before you accept
• Share a link and anyone can join the same tournament
• Post your result as a text card that reads properly in any chat app
• Watch a replay of any finished game, move by move

TRY IT WITHOUT SIGNING UP
The app opens on the tournament list, not a login form. Any finished tournament can be played free as Practice: you get the real board, and your run is slotted into the real final standings, so you find out exactly where you would have come against the people who actually played it.

PRIZES COME FROM THE POT
Entry credits go back out to the top finishers, so a bigger field means a bigger prize. Start with free credits, collect a daily allowance that grows with your streak, watch a rewarded ad, or buy a pack if you want to enter more. Climb the global leaderboard, where scores decay over 30 days so recent form is what counts.

Two minutes or twenty, there is a tournament running. Sharpen your logic and reign.

Reign Days is free to play with optional in-app purchases. Credits are a virtual in-game currency with no monetary value and cannot be exchanged for cash.
