About Riddles
Free online riddle game: classic what-am-I brain teasers read aloud from one screen, with a hint when the group is stuck and a one-tap answer reveal. AI writes endless new riddles on any theme, for any age.
Riddles brings the oldest guessing game in the world to one shared screen, with the two things a good riddle session needs: a fair hint for when everyone is stuck, and an endless supply of fresh material. It ships with 20 built-in classics, so it works instantly with no setup. Then the AI takes over: type any theme - dinosaurs, holidays, science, your home town - choose who's playing (young kids through adults) and how hard it should be, and it writes a new set of riddles matched to your group. Easy mode gives kids riddles they can genuinely solve; hard mode produces head-scratchers that will stump the grown-ups. Perfect for car rides, dinner tables, classrooms, and campfires - and riddles read aloud are made for a video call, so a weekly riddle session with grandparents in another country needs nothing but this page and a phone. No pens, cards, or sign-up required.
Frequently asked questions
How do you play the Riddles game?＋
One person reads the riddle from the screen out loud. Everyone else guesses until someone cracks it or the group gives up - then reveal the hint, and finally the answer, with a tap. Score a point for each riddle solved before the reveal.
Can the AI write riddles about any topic?＋
Yes - type any theme into the topic box (ocean animals, Halloween, math, your favourite book series) and the AI writes a fresh set of what-am-I riddles about it, each with a fair hint. Pick an age group and difficulty so they land right for your players.
Are the riddles suitable for young kids?＋
Yes - choose the young-kids age group and easy difficulty and the AI keeps the wording simple and the answers things children actually know. Everything is family-friendly by design.
Can we play with family who live far away?＋
Riddles are perfect for a video call: just read each one aloud and let everyone in the call guess - no screen share strictly needed, though sharing the screen lets everyone re-read the tricky ones. Type a topic in your own language for riddles that feel like home.
Do I need an account or app?＋
No. It runs free in your browser on any phone, tablet, or laptop - no sign-up, no downloads, nothing to print.
What if the AI is unavailable?＋
The game always works: a built-in bank of 20 classic riddles with hints is included, so you can start playing immediately even with no AI configured.
