Daily guessing games worth adding to your morning

You named today's card off the first crop and there are twenty-three hours to go. These are the daily games we actually play, grouped by what they test. Everything here is free, runs in a browser, and needs no account.

If you play Yu-Gi-Oh!

• Guess the Yu-Gi-Oh Card: this one: the artwork alone, with type, first printing, price and rules text unlocking as hints. Five guesses.
• YGOdle: deduction from card attributes - type, level, ATK and DEF - rather than art.
• YGOPRODeck Art Game: endless mode, from the site whose API our hints come from.
• YGOrdle: a Wordle-shaped daily for card names.

If you know video games

• Guess the Game from the Gear: ours: a single item from a game, starting as a white silhouette. Four guesses.
• GuessThe.Game: the original daily screenshot game, six screenshots per title.
• Gamedle: covers, keywords and characters, several modes on one site.

If you watch anime

• Guess the Anime: also ours: one screenshot per guess, with studio, episode count, year and genre hints.
• Anirift: characters, screenshots and a daily Anidle in one place.
• AniGuessr: screenshots, character portraits and opening clips.
