Perceptle help.

Daily is blank or will not load

1. Give the embedded game time to load, then check your connection. The game host can be unavailable separately from this website.
2. Choose Open game on Daily to try perceptle.net/game/ in a new tab. Browser privacy settings or extensions can affect embedded sites.
3. Open the Daily Help panel and use Reload game to load a fresh game view. Reloading can interrupt an unfinished Daily run, so use it after a loading problem or when you intend to restart.
4. Use Fullscreen for more space where your browser supports it. Otherwise, the separate game tab gives the game the full page.

Close Help to return to the same game without restarting it. If the game is still blank, choose Open game to try it in a separate tab.

Where are Archive and Keep playing?

They are controls inside the Daily game. Archive lists dated puzzles; choose a row by puzzle number and date. Keep playing starts a random, unrecorded Daily practice set using today’s variant. Our Unlimited and Friday pages are independent practice modes with their own History.

I cannot hear the Tempo beats

1. Keep the game tab visible and use its start control yourself. Browsers often require a click or tap before allowing sound. In Daily, interact with the Daily game itself.
2. Check device volume, the browser tab’s mute setting and the selected audio output. A Bluetooth headset may add noticeable delay.
3. Return to the game and start the round again. Avoid changing audio devices midway through a Tempo round.
4. If audio remains unavailable, use Custom to select the other skills while you resolve the sound setup.

Our practice Tempo uses four reference beats followed by eight taps. Friday moves the continuation taps halfway between beats. A late-feeling result can reflect audio or input delay as well as your timing; the game does not promise identical latency across devices. If sound fails only inside Daily, try the game in its own tab.

Touch input or an angle feels wrong

Use the game’s marked field and controls, and check the current selected value before submitting. Keep your finger inside the interactive area while dragging. For Friday Angle, rotate through the complete turns rather than jumping straight to the final direction.

If the page moved while you were aiming, return to the field and adjust the selection. Browser zoom, a resized window or switching orientation can change the available space; finish a round at a steady screen size where possible. Built-in form controls can also be focused and operated from a keyboard.

A practice round was interrupted

A hidden tab can pause animations, throttle timers or suspend audio. If the tab is hidden during timed observation or Tempo tapping in our practice game, it interrupts the round without recording a score. Return and choose Retry this round to replay the same target. Practice Tempo also offers a retry if its attempt times out.

The resume checkpoint is the last completed round. An estimate or partial tapping sequence that has not been submitted is not a saved result and must be played again.

The embedded Daily controls its own interruption and saving behavior. Our practice retry and resume controls do not operate on its game.

How do I resume Unlimited or Friday?

Open History in the same browser on perceptle.openguessr.org and choose Resume saved set. The stored settings and completed rounds let you continue from the next unfinished round. Keep only one active game tab to avoid competing changes to browser-local progress.

A new random session is different from continuing a saved session. To repeat exactly the same targets, use the original challenge link or the same saved configuration.

Practice records are missing

First check that you are using the same browser, profile and hostname. Private browsing has separate, temporary storage. Clearing site data, reinstalling a browser or using a storage-cleaning extension may remove records.

Daily results from perceptle.net and previous results from perceptle.com or perceptlegame.com do not automatically appear in our History. Each website has its own browser storage. Our practice game has no account or cloud save from which we can restore a deleted local record.

If you have an exported backup, open History and use Import JSON to select it. Check the import result before deleting your backup. An image, copied score card or challenge URL does not contain your entire saved history.

My Daily result is missing

Check the Daily game’s Archive in the same browser and context where you played. Browser privacy rules may separate an embedded site’s storage from that site opened directly in a tab, so the two views need not show the same saved results. A completed Daily puzzle and an unrecorded Keep playing run are also different.

Daily records are stored separately under perceptle.net and cannot be recovered through IO History import. Previous perceptle.com results do not automatically transfer. Opening the game directly can help with embedding problems, but browser privacy rules may keep its embedded and direct-tab storage separate.

Exporting and moving to another device

Choose Export history to download your completed records as JSON, or Export this result after a session to keep that run. Keep the file somewhere you control, then use Import JSON in History in the destination browser. A backup is a point-in-time copy; later games require a new export. Finish an active session before relying on a completed-history backup to preserve it.

History retains up to 100 completed sessions, with the newest kept when the limit is reached. Import merges records by session ID rather than adding a second copy of the same run. Compatible exports must be smaller than 2 MB and contain no more than 100 completed sessions.

If import is rejected, use the original unedited export file and confirm it belongs to Perceptle Unlimited. Renaming unrelated text to .json does not make it a valid game backup.

A challenge link is invalid

Copy the entire link, including everything after the question mark. Some messaging apps can shorten or wrap links. Open Challenges, paste the complete shared link or code and press Load challenge. Existing links from our perceptle-io.pages.dev preview are accepted too; new links created here use perceptle.openguessr.org; IO links still work.

The game validates the encoded settings. A cut-off code, edited configuration or unsupported format can be rejected. Start and sharing will wait until you load a valid challenge. Ask the sender for a fresh link, or choose Create a new challenge to play a different set. A new challenge does not reproduce your friend’s targets.

We opened the same challenge but got different scores

The seed and settings make the targets reproducible, not the players’ answers. Check that the mode, difficulty, skills and set count match. Also check for interrupted playback or a different audio setup. Shared scores are self-reported and are not independently authenticated.

Can I use it offline or install it?

Use Add to home screen in the footer. On supported Android browsers, choose Install Perceptle when offered. On iPhone or iPad, open this site in Safari and choose Share → Add to Home Screen; leave Open as Web App on if shown. The installed app opens from its own icon.

Connect once and wait for Offline practice is ready on this device in the install instructions. Unlimited, Friday, Custom, challenge links and local History can then work offline while those cached files remain on your device. The embedded Daily still needs an internet connection to perceptle.net. Clearing site data or browser storage eviction can remove offline files.

The installed app may have separate storage from your browser. Export completed practice history before switching, then import it in the app if needed. Daily records remain separate. New versions wait for you to choose Update & reload. If another tab has already updated, choose Reload updated app when you are ready. Finish any current game before updating; other open games do not reload automatically.

Something still does not work

Send a bug report with the page, browser, device, mode and steps that caused the problem. Include a challenge code if it reproduces the issue. Avoid sending private browsing data or unrelated files. The controls guide and scoring examples can help separate an unexpected rule from a technical fault.
