Angledle Unlimited
One mystery angle, a handful of guesses to name its exact degree. Get a temperature hint and an arrow after every try - then, unlike the daily puzzle, start straight into another round the moment this one ends.
The rules in brief
In the daily version of Angledle, a fresh angle appears at 6:00 AM local time, somewhere between 1° and 359°. Unlimited skips the clock - a new angle is ready the instant your last round finishes. Either way, the task is the same: two rays meet at a point and form a shape, and you have a limited number of tries (6 on Normal) to name its exact degree. No fractional answers, no half-degrees.
Each guess returns two pieces of feedback: a temperature hint showing how far off you were, and an arrow pointing toward the real value. That's one round. Open Settings to change difficulty, switch between Guess, Draw and Higher/Lower input, change the theme, or turn on Color Blind Mode.
What the temperature hints actually mean
The wording is consistent from guess to guess, and it's worth memorizing so you're not re-reading it mid-round.
| Hint | Range | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|
| So close! | Within 5° | Combined with the arrow, at most 5 candidates remain. |
| Hot | Within 15° | The right neighborhood - a small nudge is enough. |
| Warm | Within 30° | Closer than nothing, not there yet. A ~15° step usually makes sense. |
| Cold | More than 30° off | A larger move pays off - 40 to 50° in the arrow's direction. |
The arrow is just as direct: ▲ means the real angle is larger than your guess, ▼ means it's smaller. Combine the word with the arrow to fence off a tight strip of the dial for your next guess. On Hard difficulty the temperature word is hidden and only the arrow remains.
A sample round
Suppose the answer is 137°. A plausible sequence of guesses:
- 1180° - the strongest opener. Returns "Cold ▼": the real angle is smaller, and more than 30° away, so it is below 150°.
- 2120° - returns "Warm ▲" (17° off). The window is now 121 through 150.
- 3135° - "So close! ▲" lights up. Five candidates remain: 136–140.
- 4138° - "So close! ▼". Only 136 and 137 are left.
- 5137° - a coin-flip pick between the last two. Solved on guess 5.
Each guess sliced the surviving range roughly in half. That's the core technique.
Reading the shape before you type
A second or two of study beats a quick stab. The familiar references cover the easy cases: 90° looks like an L, 45° is half of that, 60° is a triangle corner. The category that trips up most players is reflex, so it gets the most attention here.
Reflex angles span 181° to 359°, and the trick is that the marked angle is the long way around the vertex. The smaller opening between the rays might look like 70°, while the measured angle is 290°. The small arc drawn near the vertex shows which side is being measured.
Quick fix: subtract the obvious-looking smaller angle from 360. If the narrow opening reads as 50, the marked angle is probably 310.
Acute angles are easier: a thin, pizza-slice opening is under 45°. Obtuse sits between "wider than a square corner" and "almost flat," with 135° a useful anchor. A flat line reads as 180° - the easiest case of all.
Opening guesses that actually help
- Open at 180°It splits the whole dial into "acute or obtuse" versus "reflex" with a single hint - sharper than 90°, which only halves the non-reflex side.
- Bisect what's leftAfter each hint, aim at the middle of the surviving range. Unglamorous, and usually optimal.
- Memorize anchorsKnowing 30°, 45°, 60°, 120°, 150°, and 270° by sight is enough for a passable first guess in seconds.
- Trust "So close!"A 5° window plus an arrow leaves at most five candidates - on guess 4 or 5, that's effectively a free win.
Skill versus luck
Players who finish in 3 or 4 most rounds aren't lucky - they've trained their eye and treat each guess as a question that roughly halves the dial. After a few hundred rounds, the first guess tends to land inside 10° without conscious effort, and bisection takes over from move two onward. That accuracy comes from repetition, which is exactly what Unlimited is for.
