ποΈ Riddle of the day Riddles
This is our Riddle of the Day archive β the puzzles that have taken the daily slot on the Riddles.net homepage. They are picked to be solvable in a minute or two over a coffee, with a good spread of difficulty across the week, so the collection reads as a mixed bag rather than a themed set: a little wordplay, a little logic, the occasional groan-worthy pun. If you have been following along daily and want to catch up on the ones you missed, or you simply want a varied run of riddles with no theme to anchor you, start here. Every one comes with its answer.
