About the Umbra archive
A dated puzzle is not a fresh generation. It is the same grid everyone else played that morning, kept exactly as it ran. Nothing is retired once it is printed, so the run only gets longer. Open a day you missed, or work through a stretch of it in order.
Your first solve of a date is the one that counts toward your record, so a second visit to the same day is practice. A new Umbra is printed every day at midnight US Eastern.
Today’s Umbra is open to everyone. A free account plays the last 7 days of the archive, and it carries your solve times and your streak from one device to the next. Greatest Games Plus opens every earlier day.
How the week is shaped
Umbra does not print the same puzzle shape every day. This is the ramp, and the count is how many of each weekday the archive holds.

|---|---|---|
| Monday | 5×5, every size shown | 11 |
| Tuesday | 6×6, every size shown | 11 |

| Thursday | 7×7, up to 2 hidden sizes | 11 |

| Saturday | 8×8, up to 4 hidden sizes | 11 |
