Lies of Pdle

Liesofpdle is a free daily guessing game about Lies of P, the soulslike developed by Round8 Studio and published by NEOWIZ. Every day it sets five puzzles in the twelve languages of the game: the boss on this page, a weapon to recognize from its icon, a Legion Arm, an amulet and a line of dialogue to attribute. You don't need an account, and the answers change at the same moment for every player.

The Boss mode hides one of the 29 bosses of the game: 21 from the base game and 8 from the Overture DLC. Each guess is compared with the hidden boss on six points, and the colors tell you which bosses are still possible.

How a round works

The input field is ready when the page opens: type a few letters and up to eight suggestions appear with a portrait. Case and accents don't matter, and both the English name and the name in your language work. Choose with the arrow keys and Enter, or click a suggestion. A boss you have already tried leaves the list, and there is no limit on the number of guesses.

Each guess adds a row at the top of the grid, which scrolls sideways on narrow screens.

Reading the grid

A green cell means your guess has exactly the same value as the hidden boss, and a gray cell means the value is different. On Chapter and HP, a gold cell means the number is wrong and the arrow shows the way: ↑ if the hidden boss has a higher value, ↓ if it has a lower one.

A worked example

The game below is replayed with the real grid. It opens with Arlecchino, the Blood Artist, which by our count leaves 3.5 bosses on average out of 29, and never more than 6. After that, each guess is the remaining candidate that splits the list best.

How today's boss is chosen

The server picks the boss of the day from the date and a secret key, and keeps it until midnight UTC: 9 a.m. in Tokyo, 8 p.m. the evening before in New York (7 p.m. in winter). Everyone gets the same boss, and your browser never receives the answer, because the server checks each guess and only sends back the colors of the row. Each day is drawn on its own rather than from a shuffled list, so a boss can come back after only a few days. The daily puzzle guide goes into the details.

Your guesses are saved in your browser until the next reset, so you can close the tab and find your grid again. The Practice button above the field draws a random boss as often as you like, without touching your statistics.

Good to know

• Overture bosses count their chapter within the DLC, which starts again at 1, so read Chapter together with DLC.
• In this list, every Stalker has no elemental weakness, and every boss with no weakness is a Stalker: one of these two cells often gives away the other.
• 29 bosses share 28 locations, so a green Region cell on a wrong guess points straight to the only other boss fought there.
• Each mode keeps its own Streak, Best and Played counters, based on daily wins and stored in this browser only.
• The Share button copies the boss's name, your number of guesses and one row of colored squares per guess, so post it where everyone has already played.
