Welcome to Redactle!

Redactle is a daily browser game where the user tries to determine
the subject of a random obfuscated Wikipedia article, chosen from
Wikipedia's 10,000 Vital Articles (Level 4).

A new puzzle will be available every day at 11:00 AM CDT (16:00 UTC).

Follow Redactle on Twitter @RedactleGame.

How to Play

  * Type a word into the input box and press Enter or the Guess
    button.
  * All occurrences of that word will become unredacted in the
    article body.
  * To win, figure out the title or subject of the article.

Tips and Quirks

  * Each guess must be one word only (Guessing multiple words at a
    time will not work).
  * Most Punctuation is automatically revealed in the article page.
    Some punctuation occasionally escapes Redactle's filter and
    becomes redacted.
  * Guesses are case insensitive, and letters with diacritics (e, u,
    etc) are considered to not have those diacritics.
  * Shift+Enter will attempt to automatically pluralize or
    singularize your guess. There are certain edge cases (e.g.
    guessing a nonsense word like "asdf") where this will submit
    nonsense guesses.
  * You will likely encounter some formatting and punctuation quirks.
    These are a result of stripping away certain characters and
    elements present in the original Wikipedia article that don't
    play nicely with Redactle.
  * Many common words are automatically revealed for your
    convenience. The list includes most English prepositions and
    articles. Guessing these words does not count toward your score.
  * Check the Settings menu for configuration options.
