What is Nerdle Cup?
Nerdle Cup is multiplayer nerdleverse. Compete against friends or other players in real time across a huge range of games – not just classic nerdle. You can create your own cup, join one created by a friend, or jump into one of the public challenges that are published every week.
Which games can you play?
Almost everything in the nerdleverse is available in Nerdle Cup. When you create a cup you choose the game, the number of rounds (1–10) and the round duration (30 seconds to 10 minutes). The game list includes:
- Nerdle variants – classic, mini, micro, maxi, midi, mega, bi, mini bi and quad
- Cross nerdle – multiple difficulty levels from starter to elite
- 2d nerdle – levels 1, 2 and 3
- Decoy – numbers and words, each in four sizes (micro, mini, midi, macro)
- Maffdoku – all three levels
- Shuffle – numbers and words
- Targets – levels 1–4
New public challenges are published every week, and many combine different games in a single multi-round challenge – so you might play a round of cross nerdle followed by a round of classic nerdle followed by a round of maffdoku.
Great for classrooms
Nerdle Cup is especially popular in schools. Teachers can create a cup for the whole class and students compete in real time. It adds an element of excitement to practising mental arithmetic and logical reasoning. Because everyone solves the same puzzle, results are directly comparable – and the choice of games means you can tailor the difficulty to the group.
Other ways to compete
If you prefer one-on-one competition, try nerdDuel (two-player numbers game) or wordDuel (two-player word game). For a timed solo challenge, speed nerdle puts you against the clock.
