Brisk, Moviexto, and Nearesto are now listed in the DLE Directory. Here is how each daily mode works, where it gets difficult, and which habit each one suits.
Brisk is six questions, then a rank
Brisk deals one shared set of six multiple-choice questions. Two are mental maths. One is an anagram and one is a word-meaning question. Two are number patterns. Everyone gets the same six until midnight UTC.
The ranking is not a race that rewards a sloppy six. Correct answers come first; time only breaks a tie. Leave mid-round and the timer keeps running. Practice rounds sit beside the daily and do not count toward that ranking. Guest play works without an account; Google sign-in is optional if you want the streak on another device.
Choose this if you want a short mixed set you can finish in a few minutes, and you care more about getting all six than about a single clever guess.
Moviexto is ten guesses at a shared film
Moviexto stays on one title. Daily is a numbered film that everyone is solving. You search a movie, then read eight attributes: genres, year, box office, content rating, IMDb rating, director, lead actor, and supporting actor. Green is an exact match. Yellow is close. Arrows on the numbers tell you whether to go higher or lower.
Ten guesses is a hard close if the first title is in the wrong decade. Unlimited is a different loop: a random film each time, not saved between sessions. The shared puzzle is Daily.
This is the one with a single answer you can name out loud. It is also the one that punishes a guess that shares a director and still sits years away.
Nearesto shrinks a dictionary, not a meaning list
Nearesto is a five-letter word, but the feedback is alphabetical. The board starts with AAAAA at the top and ZZZZZ at the bottom. A valid guess moves up if the secret word comes after it, or down if the secret word comes before it. A percentage shows how much of the dictionary still sits on that side. Later guesses have to land between the current bounds.
That is a different skill from Contexto, which ranks words by meaning. Nearesto does not care whether two words feel related. It cares where they sit in the dictionary. Archive and custom games are extra.
Choose this if you like narrowing a range more than ranking words by meaning, and you do not mind a few wasted guesses while the window is still wide.
Which daily game should you try first?
The useful split is the kind of guess each game wants:
- Choose Brisk if you want six short questions and a rank that rewards a clean set.
- Choose Moviexto if you want one film and eight attributes to steer the next title.
- Choose Nearesto if you want a five-letter word and an alphabetical window that gets smaller.
Brisk is the shortest close. Moviexto takes longer when the first titles miss the year. Nearesto can stay open for a while because guesses are unlimited, but each one should cut the range.
FAQ
Are Brisk, Moviexto, and Nearesto updated daily?
Yes. Brisk posts a new six-question set at midnight UTC. Moviexto numbers one shared film each day. Nearesto numbers a five-letter Daily word.
Do these daily games require an account?
No. All three open in a browser without signing in. Brisk offers optional Google sign-in if you want results on another device.
Is Nearesto the same as Contexto?
No. Contexto ranks guesses by how close they are in meaning. Nearesto places guesses in alphabetical order and shrinks the range between two bounds.
Is Unlimited the Moviexto daily?
No. Unlimited picks a random film each round. The shared puzzle is Daily.
Conclusion
If you want six mixed questions and a two-minute finish, start with Brisk. If you want a film you can talk about, start with Moviexto. If you want to close in on a word from both ends of the alphabet, start with Nearesto. Tomorrow’s set will be a different six, a different title, or a different five letters.
