Canfield Daily Challenge

#—

One numbered Canfield deal for this UTC date

The daily page deals one Canfield hand for the current UTC date. The reserve, the four columns, and the shared base rank work the same way as on the home page. What changes is that you did not pick the number. Save it if you want to open the same cards again later.

What stays the same on the daily deal

How is the daily hand different from a deal you choose?

The rules are the same. The page chooses the deal number from the UTC date, so anyone who opens it that day gets the same cards. On the home page you type the number yourself.

What should I read when the hand opens?

Read the top reserve card, the base rank on the first foundation, and the four face-up column cards. The stock still turns one card. An empty column still takes any single card.

When should I draw from the stock?

Draw when the waste card has nowhere to go. If it can still move to a column or a foundation, play it before you cover it.

What is worth checking after the hand?

Note the deal number, then look at the first draw that covered a playable waste card, or the first time the empty column held a card with no next move.

Copy the deal number before you leave

Each UTC date is one deal number. If you want the same cards tomorrow, copy the number and open it from the home page. The daily page itself moves on at the next UTC date.

Leaving the tab keeps this browser's position

Come back the same UTC day in this browser and the reserve, columns, waste, timer, and move count are still here. They stay on this device. Another browser, or a cleared site storage, starts the day's deal again.

Daily Challenge FAQ

How is today's hand chosen?

The site pins one deal number to each UTC date, so everyone who opens the daily page on the same day gets the same hand.

If I send this page to a friend, will they see the same hand?

Yes. If they open it on the same UTC date, they get the same hand. If you want to keep a specific day for later, save the deal number and reopen it from the home page.

Do I need an account to play the daily challenge?

No. It runs straight in the browser. Progress, wins, best time, and fewest moves stay only on this device. There are no accounts, points, or season systems.

What happens if I leave yesterday's tab open past midnight?

If the page never refreshes, you stay on yesterday's hand. Once you refresh it, the new day's hand loads. Yesterday's one can still be reopened later by deal number.

Can I still use undo, hint, and replay here?

Yes. Undo, hint, replay, and local records all work the same way here. The only thing fixed is which hand the page serves today.
