How DleHints works
DleHints is a small, independent site for people who enjoy daily web puzzles but sometimes need a nudge. We are not affiliated with any of the games we cover.
Hints first, answers on request
Every round starts with a vague hint and gets more specific. The answer is always behind its own button, and the progress squares on each card show how much you have revealed. Our goal is to help you finish the puzzle yourself.
Where answers come from
| Game | How we get and check the answer |
|---|---|
| Chainle | Answers are Chainle's own strongest links, checked against the game's published results. |
| Krillion | Tiers and answer counts come from Krillion's answer sheet for the day, recorded after we play the dive. |
| Poople | Paths are solved with Poople's own word list and checked against the shortest paths the game publishes. |
We play the games ourselves to write the hints, the strategy notes and the guides — for example, our Chainle guide includes the scores from our own run of puzzle #45. We never publish a puzzle before the game itself releases it.
Corrections
If an answer looks wrong, the official game is always the final word. Games occasionally update their word lists, which can change the best answer for older puzzles.
The logo
A letter tile with its corner peeled back, showing a flash of highlighter underneath — a peek at the hint without giving away the whole tile.
