Duelo: 1v1 Word & Brain Games

Pick your favourite person. Beat them at thirteen different things. Duelo turns thirteen brain games into an ongoing 1v1 duel with someone you actually know. Best of all, it keeps a permanent head-to-head record between you—because every good rivalry deserves a paper trail. Most multiplayer games fizzle out after a week because coordinating schedules is impossible. Duelo is built for real life: take your turn, make a cup of tea, and let them sweat their move whenever they open the app. It counts just the same—no calendar invite required. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY Anytime: Take your turn now. They play back whenever they find five minutes. Versus: Go head-to-head live on the exact same board. Turns: One shared board, passing moves back and forth. Co-op: Call a truce. Work together on the same grid with no losers. THE THIRTEEN GAMES Word Brawl: Words are punches. Trace a word on the letter grid, land the hit. Longer words hit harder. Last fighter standing wins. Crossword Chaos: Same clues, same grid, two brains. Solve faster, brag louder. Word Chaser: Spot hidden words before the clock runs down. Cluster Clash: Sixteen words, four sneaky connections. Group them before striking out. Cipher Storm: Five-letter deduction duel. First to crack the code wins. Path Pursuit: Trace paths through letters to claim territory and score points. Four in a Row: The tabletop test of who blinks first. Fleet Hunt: Hide your ships, hunt theirs. First to sink the fleet takes it. Dots & Boxes: Draw a line, claim a box, go again—pen-and-paper rules, zero smudging. Sudoku: Race through a shared puzzle or solve one together live. Queens: One crown per row, column, and color. Pure teamwork. Bomb Pass: Digital hot potato with a very short fuse. Don't get caught holding it. Trapdoor Panic: Navigate a hidden minefield where your rival's mistakes become your map. (Friends asleep? Quick Match finds you a worthy opponent in seconds.) REAL RATINGS (FOR THE STATS HEADS) Competitive matches run on Glicko-2—the same engine behind competitive chess ratings. It tracks skill accurately, adjusts quickly, and doesn't penalize you if you take a few weeks off. Co-op games stay unrated on purpose, because teamwork shouldn't come with performance anxiety. NO NONSENSE No energy meters locking you out No monthly subscriptions Zero mid-game ad interruptions Pure skill—Pro is just a single unlock for cosmetics and ad removal Built for the friend three time zones away, the partner on the other side of the sofa, or the group chat that’s spent years arguing over who’s actually the sharpest. Dark mode by default, because we have manners. Download Duelo. Send a challenge. Settle it once and for all. Terms: https://play-duelo.com/terms Privacy policy: https://play-duelo.com/privacy
