How the daily rotation works
Six puzzle types rotate on a fixed schedule, so you always know what is coming and you can train the game you are weakest at. Every puzzle is generated by a deterministic algorithm seeded with the date — that is why your puzzle is identical to a player's in Lisbon, Toronto or Auckland.
