Daily board

Today’s board

One board a day, the same for everyone.

Everyone who opens this page today gets the same OutBrick board. Slide every brick out through the gate of its own colour; a brick glides until something stops it. Clear it in the target number of moves without an undo for three stars, then share your result and see who can match it.

A new board every day at midnight UTC.

  • Drag a brick in any direction.
  • Keyboard: Tab to a brick, then Shift + an arrow key.
  • Share your stars from the clear card.

Today’s board

Side step

Target 5Moves 0

Side step, 5 by 5 board, 4 bricks left

Drag or swipe a brick to slide it. With a keyboard, Tab to the board and use the arrow keys to choose a brick, then hold Shift and press an arrow to slide it, or press Enter and then an arrow. Escape puts a lifted brick down. Control or Command Z undoes a move. A brick glides until a wall, another brick or a gate of a different colour stops it, and leaves through the gate that matches its colour.

Gates: Teal circle gate on the top edge, columns 2 to 3; Blue square gate on the bottom edge, columns 4 to 5; Red heart gate on the right edge, row 4; Yellow triangle gate on the left edge, row 5.

How the daily board works

Five small rules, and no clock.

It is the same puzzle as the game, one board at a time: no lives, no limit, nothing to sign up for.

  • The same board for everyone

    The board is picked from the date in UTC, so a friend on the other side of the world plays exactly the one you did.

  • A new one every day at midnight UTC

    The daily boards take turns, 16 of them from a gentle warm-up to a proper gridlock, and every one was cleared by a solver before it went up.

  • Three stars, said plainly

    A clear earns one star. Clearing inside the solver’s own move target earns two. Doing that without a single undo earns three.

  • Share the stars, not the answer

    Share from the clear card and your friends get a link to the same board with your stars on it. The moves you made stay yours.

  • Take as long as you like

    There is no clock here, and none in the game. Undo as often as you want; only the third star asks you not to.

This browser demo keeps OutBrick’s earlier sliding puzzle: move bricks out through matching gates, with unlimited undo here. It is a separate, simpler web game, not the iOS game; the iOS app adds matching, swaps, specials, goals and score-based stars.
