5Qs is a free daily mystery puzzle game. Every day at midnight Pacific Time, a new puzzle appears. You're given a scenario and a set of hidden unknowns to figure out. Your only tool: up to 5 questions asked to an AI character who knows the answer but can only respond under strict voice constraints.
Each puzzle features a unique AI voice. One day you might be questioning a nervous lighthouse keeper who can only describe things by sound. The next day, a honeybee trapped in a place it doesn't understand. The voice knows the truth but can't just tell you. You have to ask the right questions to piece it together.
Read the scenario and hidden unknowns
Ask up to 5 questions to the AI voice
Submit your guesses for each unknown
Score points and share your result
Your score is based on how many answers you get right and how efficiently you play. Correct answers earn points, and solving the puzzle with fewer questions earns an efficiency bonus. A perfect score is 100 points. Close but not exact answers earn partial credit.
The constraint is the game. If the AI just answered your questions directly, there would be no puzzle. Instead, each voice has a specific perspective that limits what it can say and how it says it. The fun is in figuring out what questions will reveal the most through that particular lens.
Puzzles refresh daily at midnight Pacific Time. Each puzzle is handcrafted and playtested to make sure it's solvable, surprising, and fun. Topics range from everyday situations to science, history, and culture.
