About GIST: Daily Word Puzzle

Every day, a new puzzle is waiting. Your job is to guess the one word that captures the essence of a paragraph — revealed one sentence at a time. Each wrong guess reveals another sentence as a clue. You have 5 attempts. Simple rules, surprisingly tricky. GIST is a daily word puzzle that takes less than a minute to play — but might stay with you all day. How it works: * One sentence is shown as your first clue * Guess the one word that captures its meaning * Wrong or close guesses reveal more sentences * Solve it in as few guesses as possible * A new puzzle every day Features: * Daily puzzles with varying difficulty — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Wildcard * Puzzle archive to catch up on missed days * Play past puzzles anytime * Share your results with friends * Personal stats including win rate, streak, and guess distribution * No account needed — just open and play * Free to play Why GIST? Most word games test your vocabulary. GIST tests something different — your ability to read between the lines, find the essence of an idea, and express it in a single word. It's part reading comprehension, part lateral thinking, part intuition. New puzzle every day at midnight. Can you get the GIST?
