About finalfantasydle
finalfantasydle is a free daily guessing game about the Final Fantasy series. Four puzzles — Character, Summon, Silhouette and Quote — refresh every day at 00:00 UTC, the same for every player. It takes a couple of minutes, it costs nothing, and there is nothing to install or sign up for.
Who makes it
It is an independent side project, built and maintained by a single developer — not a studio and not a team. It sits alongside two sibling games built on the same engine: falloutdle and residentevildle.
The site is entirely static: there is no backend, no database and no user accounts. Your streak and statistics live in your own browser and never leave your device. That design is deliberate — it keeps the game fast, keeps hosting costs near zero, and means there is no pile of personal data to lose.
Where the data comes from
The game runs on a hand-checked dataset of 527 characters from 42 games and 91 summons, compiled from publicly documented series material and community references, then reviewed entry by entry. Every character is tagged with gender, race, job or class, signature weapon, story role, source game and debut year; every summon with element, debut game, debut year and recurrence count.
Some of those attributes are genuinely debatable — what counts as a character's "signature" weapon, whether a given figure is a party member or an NPC, which title really counts as a debut when a character shows up in a remake, a spin-off and a compilation. Judgement calls were made, and some of them are certainly wrong. Both indexes are published in full so you can check them: the character index and the summon index. If you spot a mistake, tell me — corrections ship quickly.
How it is funded
The game is free and will stay free. It is supported by advertising, which covers hosting and the domain. There is no paywall, no premium tier, no newsletter harvesting and no selling of data — there is no data to sell. What the ads mean for cookies and tracking is spelled out in the privacy policy.
