About dledex

dledex is a directory of dle games: free daily puzzles in the spirit of Wordle. We link straight to each game, describe it in a sentence and rank it by how much people play and like it.

How the ranking works

  1. Editorial estimate

    Every game starts with an estimate of its popularity from public signals: how many other dle directories list it and how much traffic its website gets.

  2. Play clicks

    How often people press Play on the game here, counted over the last 30 days.

  3. Star ratings

    What players think of the game, one rating per device.

The more people play and rate a game, the more their clicks and stars count and the less the editorial estimate matters. The ranking is recalculated every day.

Stars count through a Bayesian average: each game's ratings are mixed with ten votes at the site-wide average. A handful of votes can't push a game up or down; only many votes can.
