What is Daily Signal Garden?
It is a tiny daily browser game for people who like wordless logic puzzles, ordering puzzles, and quick puzzle breaks. Arrange five garden signals into the order that satisfies every clue, then press Count / Submit order; wrong submits never hurt your streak, and after the first count a yellow move becomes part of the daily solve.
If your order is wrong, the first daily miss gives count-only feedback and unlocks the yellow move; later checks help you recover with tile feedback. There is no penalty for testing, no account to create, and no ad wall between you and the puzzle.

How to play in under a minute
- Read the short clue card.
- The board opens with the starter clue already applied, so you can use Count for the opening count-only result or tap two tiles first; later checks use Submit order.
- Tap two tiles to swap them, or use the keyboard to move focused tiles.
- Press Count / Submit order; it tells how many positions are right, then you can adjust and test again.
- Use the feedback to move any “too early” or “too late” tiles.
- Restore the garden, then optionally save a return path for tomorrow.
The daily puzzle resets on UTC time. Static pages like this one do not run the game script or count as a play; only opening the playable board or Practice Grove sends anonymous aggregate activity so I can improve the puzzle.
Daily Signal Garden FAQ
- Is it free?

- No. Wrong submits never hurt your local streak; after the first count, the daily board unlocks a required yellow move before your next check.
- How long does it take?

Looking for today’s clues before you play?
The clue preview page shows the current signal names and clue lines without revealing the final order. It is a good option if you want to decide whether today’s puzzle is your style before opening the game.
If it feels worth one minute, save tomorrow’s path
Daily Signal Garden is easiest as a tiny UTC ritual. Before or after playing, pick one low-pressure return path: bookmark the return card, add the calendar reminder, follow the RSS feed, or warm up with Practice Grove #7.
