How Clash Royale Daily Puzzles work
Daily Puzzles are a Season 89 (King vs. King) event mode: one fixed puzzle a day while a set is running, a tiny hand of 1–4 cards, and towers that often sit on 1 HP. The rules below come from Supercell's official release notesand from observed behaviour during Set 1.
The rules that matter
- One puzzle a day, released on a set schedule (observed around 9:00 UTC).
- The scenario never changes — "same cards, same places, same times" on every attempt.
- Each card can be played once per attempt. No cycling, no refunds.
- One free Practice attempt first; only attempts after Practice are counted.
- You're scored on attempts, compared against the puzzle's Par.
- Puzzles stack within a set — you can go back and clear earlier days until the set timer ends.
- The name is a hint — the release notes literally tell you to watch the names.
Par, explained
Par is the benchmark attempt count for a puzzle — like golf. Beating Par means you solved it the intended way; going over just means the placement window was tight. Pars across the archived puzzles ranged from 2 (Push Comes to Shove) to 11 (Dynamic Duo) — a Par that high usually means exact tile placement matters more than the idea.
| Day | Puzzle | Difficulty | Cards | Par |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bone Blockade | Easy | Tesla + Skeletons | 3 |
| 2 | Kingfisher | Easy | Fisherman | 4 |
| 3 | Push Comes to Shove | Easy | Giant | 2 |
| 4 | Royal Rebound | Easy | Hog Rider | 3 |
| 5 | Heavy Metal Tour | Hard | Firecracker | 7 |
| 6 | Dynamic Duo | Ultra Hard | Bandit + Royal Ghost | 11 |
| 7 | Ram Reroute | Hard | Cannon + Battle Ram | 9 |
Frequently asked questions
Do Clash Royale daily puzzles give rewards?
No. Supercell describes the mode as being about skill and bragging rights — solve each puzzle in as few attempts as you can. No completion payout is listed in the season release notes.
When does the next daily puzzle unlock?
Supercell has not published an official time. Every puzzle of Set 1 appeared around 9:00 UTC, so we expect the same window for future sets. We publish each solution once the route has been confirmed against documented clears.
What does Par mean in daily puzzles?
Par is the target number of attempts for a puzzle, like golf — not an attempt limit. Compare your "Completed in" count with Par after you finish. Your first Practice attempt does not count toward the total.
How are attempts counted?
Each puzzle starts with one Practice attempt. Only attempts after Practice are counted, and the scenario never changes between attempts: same cards, same placements, same timing.
How many cards do you get in a daily puzzle?
Between 1 and 4 cards, and each can be played only once per attempt. There is no cycling — once your Tesla falls, it stays down.
Can I still play an older puzzle?
Within the same set, yes — the puzzles stack and a single set timer counts down for all of them. Set 1 puzzles stayed replayable until the set timer ended on November 9, 2026. What happens after a set ends has not been officially confirmed.
Is there a second set of daily puzzles?
Yes. Supercell confirmed a second set of puzzles later in Season 89. Season 89 is scheduled to end on December 7, 2026; no set date has been announced — we publish every Set 2 solution once it is verified.
Why are the puzzle names important?
Supercell's release notes end the puzzle section with: "P.S. You may want to pay attention to the puzzle names". Each name hints at the solution — see our puzzle names index for every name decoded so far.
