Wheel of Fortune Daily is now available on Apple Arcade, the subscription service that gives members access to a curated selection of games for a single monthly price. Games in the Apple Arcade catalog don’t have advertisements or offer in-game purchases.
Inspired by the long-running television series, Wheel of Fortune Daily allows players to complete a new word puzzle each day that takes the format of the “bonus puzzles” from the show. In each puzzle, players must decipher a word or phrase with only a limited number of letters in the solution being given.
Like in the show, players are given the letters RSTLNE and can choose three extra consonants and a vowel to see if they fit anywhere in the word or phrase. From there, they’ll be able to enter the remaining letters to solve the puzzle. They can use up to three hints while solving a puzzle, which will fill in the next letter in the word or phrase.
In addition to daily bonus puzzles, Wheel of Fortune Daily offers a “Daily Toss Up” feature that challenges players to solve five puzzles in a row before time runs out. These puzzles are inspired by the “Toss Up” puzzles from the show, and see letters automatically revealed in a word or phrase over time. Players can tap a button when they think they know the answer to fill in the remaining letters and solve the puzzle. If they’re correct, they’ll gain extra time on the clock.
Finally, the game’s “2 Player Toss Up” mode allows players to compete against one other person (either a random opponent or someone they know) to be the first two to solve two of the game’s toss up puzzles.
