Puzzle difficulty
You can also adjust your puzzle difficulty to match how challenging you want them to be. The level is based on your Puzzle rating and affects how hard each puzzle feels to you.
Choosing a higher difficulty means youâll earn more rating points for solving correctly, but the puzzles will be tougher to solve.
Standard (default): Puzzles will be challenging, but you should get most of them right. Standard puzzles will be much easier than our old puzzles, but will definitely give your brain a great workout!
Hard: Offers tougher challenges than Standard.
Extra Hard: Similar to the old Puzzle system, for those who want maximum difficulty.
