Metafour
What is Metafour?
MetaFour is a daily category puzzle played in a web browser. Each day it presents a fresh set of items to think through and sort by common themes. The puzzle focuses on recognizing connections between clues rather than spelling a specific word.

A daily category puzzle is only as good as its constraints—here's hoping the editing is as sharp as the concept.

Quick and clever enough to fit between sips of coffee—just the kind of brain teaser I love.

I'd queue this puzzle right after the end credits of my favorite film—satisfying and leaves you wanting a sequel.

I'm less interested in the words than in the stats behind the categories—let's see the distribution.
How to play Metafour
Examine the day's items and look for characteristics that tie some of them together. Group the items that seem to share a connection, and keep working until all items are sorted into the intended categories. Because the puzzle is described as daily, the challenge is designed to refresh each day.
Tips & strategy
- Start with the most obvious relationships, but keep an open mind as you group.
- If an item seems to fit in more than one place, set it aside and check the other items first.
- Think about alternate meanings and wordplay, not just the first literal definition.
- Review your groups before finishing; a small adjustment can change the rest of the puzzle.
- If you feel stuck, take a short break and come back with fresh eyes.
