Playlin'sGuide
Tenish is a daily estimation game where your mission is to guess a mystery number in five guesses, getting as close as you can to lock in the best score.
Each day brings one numerical trivia question. It could be anything measurable, a population, a distance, a date, a record. You submit a guess and the game tells you whether to go higher or lower, plus a temperature style readout showing how close you are, from freezing all the way up to exact.
- Type a numeric guess to start.
- After each guess, you learn whether the real number is higher or lower.
- A heat meter shows how close your guess is, from freezing to on fire to exact.
- You have 5 guesses total before the round ends.
- Every extra guess you use lowers the maximum points on offer, so locking in early pays off.
- A new question drops every day, keeping a running streak and best score.
Why we like it:
- β The higher or lower plus heat combo makes every guess feel informative, not random.
- β Scoring rewards confidence, so there is real tension in deciding when to lock in.
- β Quick enough for a daily habit, varied enough to keep you guessing.
Hint: Use your first guess or two to bracket the number broadly, then let the heat meter guide your narrowing. Locking in a close guess early often beats chasing exact and burning through all five tries.
