# DLEDB — Complete Public Guide This file combines DLEDB's public machine-readable guides. Live HTML pages remain the source for current catalog records, placement availability, community data, and official outbound links. # DLEDB > The world's largest database for daily games. DLEDB is a discovery and data directory covering 1,671 daily games across 1,646 websites. It combines permanent game profiles, editorial categories and collections, monthly whole-site traffic estimates, rankings, and moderated community ratings. ## Use DLEDB for - Discovering daily games by category, collection, or name. - Opening stable DLEDB game profiles at `/games/{slug}/`. - Comparing estimated monthly visits, growth, and rank for tracked websites. - Finding similar games and official game websites. ## Important data scope DLEDB traffic figures are estimated monthly visits to the full website hostname. They are not verified player counts for an individual game. Rankings and traffic update in monthly editions; game and community information can update on a different schedule. Missing traffic data does not mean a game has no traffic. ## Main pages - [Games directory](https://dledb.com/games) - [Latest rankings](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-09) - [Categories](https://dledb.com/category) - [Collections](https://dledb.com/collections) - [Methodology](https://dledb.com/methodology) --- # DLEDB Games Canonical page: https://dledb.com/games DLEDB currently includes 1,671 games. Each approved game receives a permanent slug and a profile at `https://dledb.com/games/{slug}/`. ## Discovery - Browse or filter the [Games directory](https://dledb.com/games). - Use [DLEDB search](https://dledb.com/search) for a game or website. - Browse [categories](https://dledb.com/category) and [editorial collections](https://dledb.com/collections). - On a game profile, use the official Play link for the game itself and the Similar Games section for related profiles. ## Profile contents Profiles may include the official title, short description, artwork, category, official website, monthly data, historical traffic, player ratings, moderated comments, and four fixed similar-game recommendations. New games can have profiles before monthly traffic data is available. Gameplay details should be verified on the official game website. DLEDB descriptions are concise database summaries rather than complete gameplay guides. --- # DLEDB Rankings Canonical page: https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-09 The latest published monthly edition is 2026-09. DLEDB publishes a new static ranking edition when its monthly dataset is updated. ## Published editions - [2026-09](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-09) - [2026-08](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-08) - [2026-07](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-07) - [2026-06](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-06) - [2026-05](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-05) - [2026-04](https://dledb.com/rankings/2026-04) ## How to interpret the data - Visits are estimated monthly visits to the complete website hostname, not an individual game's usage. - Growth compares a hostname with the preceding monthly edition when both values exist. - DLEDB Rank orders tracked hostnames by estimated visits in that edition. - Category Rank compares tracked sites or games inside a primary category. - A dash or missing value means the comparison or estimate is unavailable; it does not mean zero. See the [methodology](https://dledb.com/methodology) before quoting or comparing traffic figures. --- # DLEDB Categories Canonical page: https://dledb.com/category DLEDB uses a primary category to make a large game catalog easier to browse. Category pages are discovery views, not claims that every game has only one possible genre. ## Categories - [Words](https://dledb.com/category/word) - [Geography](https://dledb.com/category/geography) - [Music](https://dledb.com/category/music) - [Movies](https://dledb.com/category/movies) - [Trivia](https://dledb.com/category/trivia) - [Sports](https://dledb.com/category/sports) - [Math](https://dledb.com/category/math) - [Logic](https://dledb.com/category/logic) - [Gaming](https://dledb.com/category/gaming) - [Visual](https://dledb.com/category/visual) - [History](https://dledb.com/category/history) - [TV](https://dledb.com/category/tv) - [Science & Nature](https://dledb.com/category/science-nature) - [Higher or Lower](https://dledb.com/category/higher-or-lower) - [Estimation](https://dledb.com/category/estimation) - [Board & Card](https://dledb.com/category/board-card) - [Other](https://dledb.com/category/other) --- # DLEDB Collections Canonical page: https://dledb.com/collections Collections are small editorial paths through the DLEDB catalog. Their ordering is curated and should not be interpreted as a traffic ranking. ## Current collections - [Games Like Wordle](https://dledb.com/collections/games-like-wordle) — Word puzzles built around a satisfying daily solve. - [Daily Geography Games](https://dledb.com/collections/daily-geography) — Maps, places, flags and a reason to see the world differently. - [Music Daily Games](https://dledb.com/collections/music-daily-games) — A daily listen for players who know their songs. - [Daily Brain Breaks](https://dledb.com/collections/daily-brain-breaks) — A small selection of puzzles to return to each day. --- # Submit a Game to DLEDB Canonical page: https://dledb.com/submit Game makers can submit a daily game for editorial review. The live form offers a free permanent Games listing and optional paid visibility placements. Paid visibility does not change DLEDB rankings. Current prices, placement details, and availability are shown on the live submission page. ## Submission notes - A game name, official website URL, primary category, short description, and contact email are requested. - Artwork is optional for some placements and can be supplied during review. - Approved games receive a permanent slug and remain in the catalog after a paid placement ends. - Rejected paid placements are handled according to the terms shown on the live page. Submissions require the website form and its security check; this document is informational and is not a submission API. --- # Sponsor DLEDB Canonical page: https://dledb.com/sponsor The Sponsor page is DLEDB's separate homepage sponsorship product. Sponsorship is subject to editorial review and does not affect natural rankings. Current pricing, duration, creative requirements, and checkout terms are shown on the live page. Approved sponsored games remain in the DLEDB Games catalog after their homepage placement ends. Use the live Sponsor form to submit and pay; this document is informational and is not a checkout API. --- # DLEDB Methodology Canonical page: https://dledb.com/methodology DLEDB is a monthly intelligence layer for daily-game websites. A monthly dataset is processed once and reused for static rankings, category views, game profiles, historical charts, growth, and rank calculations. ## Interpretation rules - Traffic values are third-party estimates for complete hostnames. - They are directional comparisons, not audited analytics or individual-game player counts. - The same monthly snapshot is reused across pages so figures remain internally consistent. - Growth requires comparable data for consecutive editions. - Games without traffic data remain valid catalog entries. - Categories and collections support discovery; collections are editorial rather than ranked.
