ABOUT
A daily challenge for hockey fans: name the mystery player in five guesses, from clues about players past and present.
The Original Idea
Hockey trivia meets Wordle.
A daily Wordle-style puzzle for hockey last names, drawn from players past and present.
HOW IT STARTED
Plenty of hockey trivia games exist. Few play like Wordle.
Mystery Hockey is a daily player puzzle: five guesses, color feedback, and clues that get easier when you miss — each miss unlocks the next clue free, or peek ahead for 1 puck.
Each day is a different player from the database: stars, depth guys, and names from older eras.
WHAT'S DIFFERENT
5 Difficulty Levels
Clues run from very common knowledge (level 1) to obscure stats (level 5). Each wrong guess unlocks an easier clue free — or peek ahead for 1 puck.
Extensive Database
Over 445 players from different eras, positions, and skill levels.
Daily Fresh Content
A new mystery player every day, at midnight Eastern time.
Smart Clues
Clues reveal information progressively: each wrong guess unlocks more about the player free, with paid peeks if you can't wait.
