FAQ
How do I play Peerkle on mobile?
Peerkle works on any modern mobile browser. Drag items to arrange the ladder, or tap to pick and tap a slot to place. Submit when all eight rungs are filled.
What time does Peerkle reset?
00:00 UTC. Whichever continent you're on, today's Peerkle is the same one a player in Tokyo or São Paulo is solving.
What do the glyphs mean?
After you submit a guess, each rung shows a filled circle for the correct position, a half circle for off by one, and an empty circle for off by two or more. The glyphs only tell you how far each rung is from its real spot — they never hint at the underlying numbers, so they can't leak the units while you're still playing.
