Wonderhop: Four Daily Games, One Shared Day

Wonderhop is a free daily game in which you name the answer everyone gives, or the one almost nobody gives, or the oldest, or the newest. It is one word, capital W, played in the browser at wonderhop.io. The facts below come from the press sheet and the how-to-play page, checked on 14 November 2026.

What is Wonderhop?

A couple of independent developers in Montreal, Quebec, made it. The public launch date on the press sheet is 13 October 2026. It runs on a phone, tablet, or computer, with nothing to install, in nine languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, and Turkish. Answers are accepted in the player’s language. The four daily games are free, with no ads and no account. You can pick a nickname for the leaderboard.

The press sheet’s own description is the cleanest summary. Every day, everyone gets the same four short games of seven questions. Sky looks for the most common answer. Abyss looks for a real answer almost nobody gives. Past looks for the oldest. Future looks for the newest. Answers are typed freely. An AI judge checks answers that are not already on the list, and it explains refusals. Percentages follow what real players answer. The site is explicit that it never publishes the answers.

Wonderhop says it is inspired by survey-style television game shows, played solo, in a few minutes a day. It also says it is independent and not affiliated with any TV show. Contact is [email protected], and the press page says they answer in English or French.

How do you play Wonderhop?

A new day starts at midnight Montreal time, which is Eastern Time. Until the next midnight the four games stay put, so a friend who plays later has the same questions.

Each game is seven questions. You have 30 seconds for a question, and 40 seconds in Abyss. The longer clock is for the rare-answer game, which is the one that takes a second thought. Each answer earns up to 100 points. A game totals 700. The how-to-play page says a full day of four games is 2,800 points. The labels it gives, from the best answer on the list downward, are Perfect (gold), then Excellent, Great, OK, and Weak. Perfect is only the best answer on that list: number one in Sky, the rarest answer or one rarer than 97 percent of players’ answers in Abyss, and an answer among the oldest or newest 3 percent in Past and Future.

Sky: give the answer most people give. The more popular it is, the higher you climb.

Abyss: give a rare answer that is still real. The rarer it is, the deeper you sink.

Past and Future: give the oldest thing, or the most recent thing, that fits. Your answer is compared with the other answers to the same question, and a good one moves you through time. In those two games the year of the answer is what counts.

A made-up answer is refused, and you can type another one before the timer ends. The how-to-play page compares Sky to the survey-show idea of guessing what most people say, and Abyss to the idea of guessing what almost nobody says. That is a description, not a license. The game is not the television show.

When you finish, a share button gives you a result and a link. Someone who opens it sees your score and can try to beat it on the same questions. The site suggests Sky as the easiest one to play as a group around one screen: read the question aloud, agree on an answer, type it before the timer ends.

Is there an unlimited mode?

The four daily games are the free set. An optional Hop Pass costs 9.99 US dollars once, or 3 US dollars a month, according to both the press sheet and the how-to-play page. It unlocks unlimited play, the archive, and every theme. The how-to-play page describes the archive as the last 30 days. Without the pass, the day ends when you have played the four games.

Rarest Answer includes a free unlimited mode and only one job: the rarer correct answer scores more. Wonderhop’s Abyss is the mode that matches that job. Sky is the opposite, and it is closer to the Majority game. If you only want the rare-answer practice, you can play Abyss and then come back here for another set.

What helps on each mode?

On Sky, type the answer a crowded room blurts out. A precise or local answer sinks you. On Abyss, do the reverse, and keep the answer real, because the judge refuses inventions. The extra ten seconds are there so you can discard the first name. On Past and Future, the year is the score. A famous thing from the wrong end of the timeline is a confident miss.

The site’s choice to hide the answer list is deliberate. There is no official solution page to open at midnight. Learning happens on the result you see after you submit. For a method aimed at the rare end of a prompt, read how to find rare answers, then look at how this site lays out a finished prompt under rarest answers.

Cosmillion is seven rare-answer prompts and a published rank table, with no “most common” mode beside it. Krillion is a seven-round dive whose FAQ is about rare answers, not about four directions. Seldom uses one question and five low-is-better guesses. Jinxed is the version you play in a room, with split points. A full comparison is on games like Krillion.
