Most Popular Sections Puzzles

These are the most popular Sections puzzles in the archive. A puzzle usually lands here because it ran on a busy day or because people passed it around, so the order tracks attention rather than quality.

Popularity says nothing about difficulty. Some of these are a gentle first go and some are punishing. The percentage beside each one is the share of players who finished, so you can tell which is which before you start. Everything is free to play, here or in the full archive.

How this list is worked out

This list ranks puzzles by how many people have played them, most first. Popularity picks up a mix of things: puzzles that landed on a busy day, ones that got shared around, and ones people came back to for a second run.

The percentage beside each puzzle is its completion rate, so you can tell at a glance whether a crowd favourite is also a fight. A puzzle can be widely played and gentle, or widely played and brutal, and the two columns tell you which.

Play counts themselves are not published, only the ordering. The ranking refreshes once a day.
