About MinuteThief

What is MinuteThief?

MinuteThief is a free daily puzzle games platform. A new challenge appears every day at midnight UTC. Our mission is simple: steal a few minutes of your day with fun, shareable puzzles.

The first game, Target Number, is based on the classic Countdown numbers round. Combine six numbers using basic arithmetic to reach the target. New games are added regularly.

How it works

• Every player worldwide gets the same daily puzzle.
• Your stats, streaks, and settings are stored locally on your device.
