When does the daily Chainle puzzle reset?

Last updated 2026-11-11

Chainle rolls over at midnight UTC (00:00 UTC). Because the countdown is set to UTC rather than your local clock, everyone plays the same puzzle on the same day.

What that means in your timezone

00:00 UTC lands at different local times: afternoon or evening across the Americas, late evening or early morning in Europe and Africa, and morning to midday across Asia and Australia. If the puzzle seems to change “early” or “late” for you, it is simply the UTC boundary arriving.

Playing outside the daily window

You never have to wait for the next reset to keep playing. Practice mode draws from a separate pool of 200 rounds and is always available, and the archive lets you replay rounds from earlier dates. Those archive rounds stay scored under the rules that were in place when they originally ran, so older dates can behave differently from today’s game.

In total the game contains 1,200 distinct clue sets: 1,000 scheduled for daily play and 200 for practice.
