Free Online Guessing Games

A good guessing game is never pure luck. Each guess gives you a clue, and the fun is in using those clues to close in on the answer. These free games cover every kind: guess the word, guess the hidden code, guess the next card, guess the color and guess where the enemy ships are.

If you like word puzzles, start with Word Guess or Hangman. If you prefer logic, Code Breaker and Sea Battle reward careful reasoning. For a quick bit of luck and nerve, Higher or Lower asks whether the next card will beat the last one.

Every game is free in your browser with no download or sign up, and works on phone, tablet and computer. Many have a daily puzzle, so you can compare guesses with friends.

Guessing games are also great for groups. Put Trivia Quiz or Guess the Definition on a big screen and let everyone shout out their answer before you tap.
