Daily games tier list
Bands, labeled as opinion
S: Wordle and Quordle. Both state the puzzle in a sentence I can quote, and both have a publisher I can name. A: Worldle, Flagle, Semantle, Bandle, Framed. Each changes the question and still has an official description. B: Waffle, Nerdle, Redactle, Gamedle, Krillion, Magnitudle. Real games I opened, with a thinner public rules sentence.
I left Dordle and Octordle out of a band until I can quote a guess count. Nothing here is a vote from Reddit. If you want the communities, the Reddit guide lists the ones whose URLs returned 200.
What I checked
I built the bands on 30 September 2026 after the homepage pass. Moving Krillion up would require a rules paragraph I still do not have. I am leaving it in B for that reason.
Questions
Is S tier a score?
It is a label for "I would recommend this first." There is no numeric rating in the page schema.
Why is Connections not in S?
Connections is a Times daily, but this band is about games whose rules I quoted. I have the official URL and not a full rules extract, so it stays on the NYT page.
