Daily Tens

Daily Tens is a trivia game for those who enjoy testing their knowledge through short, yet challenging, puzzles. Each day, the game presents a topic in the form of a Top 10 list—for example, countries with the highest GDP, the largest U.S. states, or the highest-grossing films. Your goal is to identify all ten items on the list before you run out of lives (you are allowed five incorrect guesses).

How to Play Daily Tens and the Lives System

When you open Daily Tens, you will see the day’s trivia topic. Before you start entering answers, tap the information icon next to the title to see the specific criteria used for the ranking—such as GDP, land area, population, or box office revenue.

• Read the topic: Understand the scope and subject of the Top 10 list.
• Enter your answers: Type your answer (in English) into the input field and press Enter or the arrow button.
• Check the results: If your answer is correct, it will appear in its corresponding position on the list. If it is incorrect, you lose one heart.
• Complete the game: Successfully identify all 10 items or submit your list to finish the round.

You have a maximum of 5 incorrect guesses, so guessing randomly is not a wise strategy, especially once you have already lost a few hearts.

Tips for Finding All 10 Answers in Daily Tens

Read the ranking criteria carefully

A topic might seem familiar, but the specific ranking criteria could be misleading. For instance, a list of countries by total GDP is different from a list of countries by GDP per capita. Always check the information section before you start making guesses.

Use revealed answers to deduce others

As items appear on the list, you gain additional clues that can help you narrow down your remaining options. For geography-themed categories, consider countries or territories of a comparable scale. For film-related categories, focus on titles with high commercial success (box office performance) rather than relying solely on personal preference.

A few other helpful tips

• Enter the answers you are certain of first to reveal slots in the list.
• Pay close attention to the English spelling of proper nouns.
• Type the first few letters and select from the drop-down menu to ensure your answer is valid.
• Avoid making consecutive guesses without a solid basis, especially when you are down to your final heart (life).

Daily Tens is not limited to the current day’s puzzle. You can access the Archive section or the calendar icon to replay lists from previous days. After each round, the game displays your percentile ranking compared to other players who participated that day.
