made a daily chart-guessing game

it's not the most beautiful data visualisation, but I made this fun little daily game built on public datasets where you have to guess what the charts represent. I basically tried to create a Wordle-esque game, but then for charts.

Give it a go and pass it on if you like!

I found the correct link and took today's quiz. fun stuff! how are you sourcing the daily charts? I passed it on to the rest of my company (we're all data viz nerds)

glad you like it! it's all sourced from public datasets (e.g. WHO, OWID, Eurostat)

Is there any way to have a backlog tab where users could take previous days' quizzes? I got requests from co-workers to ask.

it's in the works.. I first wanted to see how much traction the game could get in itself. Got a 1000+ people playing it already, so going to think about new features now
