Little puzzles — fresh every day.
A hub of 19 daily German puzzle games under one roof — same puzzle for everyone each day, plus a competition mode with a shared server-side leaderboard.

About the project
Spiele is a single Next.js application that hosts 19 independent daily games — word, logic, maths, geography and card puzzles — each with its own brand, colour theme and animated mascot, resolved from a central registry and served under one path-based route. Every game derives its puzzle from a shared day seed, so all players see the same challenge and it resets at midnight. The competition mode adds server-authoritative state in Redis: invite friends, play your picks across a single day, and land on one shared leaderboard with an award ceremony at the end. Free, no account, no ads.
Highlights
- 19 daily games from one registry — per-game theme pair, mascot, and lazily loaded module
- Shared day-seed determinism: everyone gets the same puzzle, reset daily
- Competition mode on server-authoritative Redis state (write-once results, shared leaderboard, award ceremony)
- Rutschrobbe: realtime multiplayer curling on a shared, server-refereed arena
- 19 mascots with four animation loops each, plus a global dark/light theme and German / English UI
