Foldlet FAQ
What is Foldlet?
Foldlet is a daily puzzle game where you fold a small world between four dimensions to guide a tiny astronaut to the exit. There's one new puzzle a day, the same for everyone.
Is Foldlet free?
Yes, today's puzzle is free to play every day. Foldlet Pro, $1 a month, unlocks every past puzzle in the calendar.
When does the new puzzle come out?
A new Foldlet puzzle starts at midnight in your time zone, every day.
How long does a puzzle take?
Most Foldlet puzzles take a few minutes. They're easiest on Monday and hardest on Sunday.
Is Foldlet like Wordle?
Foldlet works like Wordle: one puzzle a day, the same for everyone, with a shareable result and a streak. The difference is that Foldlet is a spatial puzzle, not a word puzzle. You solve it by folding space rather than guessing letters. See games like Wordle for more.
Do I need to know any math to play?
No. You never see a formula. If you can picture squashing a cardboard box flat, you can play Foldlet, and the six lessons cover the rest.
What does "4D" mean in Foldlet?
In Foldlet, the fourth dimension is one more direction, called w, that splits the world into parallel slices. Fold-ramps let you hop between slices, and folding down to 3D stacks all the slices into one.
Can I play on my phone?
Yes. Foldlet is made for phones first and runs in the browser on iPhone, Android and desktop. You can add it to your home screen like an app. There's nothing to download.
Do I need an account?
No. You can play without one. A free account (just your email, no password) keeps your streak across devices and puts you on the daily leaderboard.
How do I share my result?
When you solve the puzzle, tap Share. It posts your puzzle number, moves, folds and a tiny chart of the dimensions you used, without giving away the solution.
