About the daily haul

How do you play Hooked?

Each day has five categories. After a short count-in you get 30 seconds per round to type as many different correct answers as you can. Names and common aliases count, and every correct answer lands a fish.

When does a new puzzle come out?

A new haul opens at midnight in your own time zone. Everyone gets the same categories on the same date, so you can compare scores with friends.

How is my score worked out?

Common answers land minnows of about 1 lb, while deep cuts land anglerfish of about 7.5 lb. One answer per category is the kraken, worth about 10 lb. Every fish caught in the fifth round counts double.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Hooked is free to play in any modern browser, on phone or desktop. There is no sign-up: an anonymous cookie keeps your daily haul and streak together.
