- 01
Choose a little challenge
Play Daily 5 for the same five date-seeded objects and targets as everyone else, or choose unlimited solo Practice. Daily dates use UTC; old challenge links keep their original objects.
- 02
Follow the star
The little star marks the piece that will be measured. Your target is a percentage of the object’s actual filled area. Empty holes do not count; background and shadows are not material.
- 03
Make one clean cut
Swipe straight from outside the object through to the other side. A valid crossing commits immediately. Taps, canceled gestures, misses and cuts through the star do not count; try the same object again. Keyboard players can set the line angle and position, then choose Commit cut.
- 04
See what you let go
The actual pieces separate and reveal your percentage, error and score. Choose Next object when ready. Finish five valid cuts for a Daily result, or keep practicing without a limit.
Each valid cut earns max(0, round(100 − 4 × percentage-point error)). For example, 3 percentage points off earns 88. Daily 5 totals five cuts for a maximum of 500; there is no speed bonus or public leaderboard.
Picture this
The target is 35%. You cut off the starred piece and it contains 32% of the filled object. Your error is 3 percentage points and your score is 88. A hole inside that piece contributes no area.
A few good ground rules
- 24 original silhouettes include concave shapes and holes. The visible geometry is the exact scoring geometry.
- Daily progress stays in this browser when storage is available. Challenge links preserve the date and version, without including your cuts. Replaying is local practice, never ranked.
- Use Line controls for keyboard angle and position adjustment, then explicitly commit. Reduced motion keeps the pieces in place.
