Why it is worth trying
Missing Links works well as a daily habit because a round usually takes 5-12 min. The rules are understandable in one session, but better pattern recognition can still improve future attempts.
Players who enjoy word, connections, daily will find the closest fit here. The shared daily format also makes it easy to compare results with friends without requiring a long multiplayer session.
