Elemental Days

A new mystery element every day.

Elemental Days is a free daily puzzle game for Android. Every day it sets one mystery element — the same one for every player in the world — and gives you four things to build it from: Earth, Water, Fire and Air. You combine elements two at a time to discover new ones, and work your way to the day’s mystery in as few moves as possible.

It is a single-player game with no account, no sign-up and no timer. Elemental Days is built and published by DevX100.

Today’s mystery

Over a thousand more elements sit between the four on the left and the one on the right. Finding the shortest path between them is the whole game.

How Elemental Days works

The whole game is one gesture repeated: put two things together and see what comes out.

01

Start with four things

Every run opens with Earth, Water, Fire and Air. Nothing else, and nothing to buy.

02

Combine to discover

Drag one element onto another and see what it makes. Water and Fire make Steam. Earth and Water make Mud. Each discovery unlocks more combinations.

03

Reach today's mystery

Somewhere down the chain is the element the game set for today. Find it in as few moves as you can, then come back tomorrow for a new one.

What is in the game

A new mystery every day

One element per day, identical for every player in the world. Miss it and it is gone — tomorrow brings a different one.

Over 1,000 elements

Every discovery is logged permanently in an in-game codex, sorted by historical era, from the Stone Age onward.

Fewer moves is a better score

Anyone reaches the answer eventually. The game is reaching it efficiently, then beating your own record.

No timers, no lives

Nothing punishes you for experimenting. Mix anything with anything, and undo whenever you like.

Plays offline

The daily puzzle runs entirely on your device. No connection needed once the app is installed.

No account required

There is no sign-up and no login. Your progress is saved locally on your own device.

Data and privacy

Elemental Days has no account system and does not ask for your name, email address or any other personal information. Your game progress — discovered elements, move history and streaks — is stored only in local storage on your own device.

The game is supported by ads served through Google AdMob, which collects an advertising identifier and basic device information in order to deliver them. Exactly what that involves is set out in full in the Elemental Days Privacy Policy.
