What’s new in Centumth — features, fixes, and the little things that make the game better.

Ads are coming to Centumth

You’ll start seeing ads on the play screens and archive lists. The game itself isn’t changing.

What’s new
  • Why: Keeping the database and the hosting running has been getting expensive. Ads are there so the site can at least pay for its own structure.
  • Where: A banner above the puzzle, side ads on a wide desktop, a closable bar at the bottom, and a couple of spots around the archive list. Nothing on top of the guess box.
  • Same game: Five guesses, the hidden Top 100, the archive write-ups. Ads sit around that, not inside it.

Thanks for playing. This is what keeps a new topic coming every midnight.

A better stats recap — and Full Stats

The results screen now tells a story, not just a chart. And if you want to nerd out, there’s a full stats page.

What’s new
  • A verdict, not a spreadsheet: Community stats now open with a one-line take on how you played, a colored guess chart, today’s podium, the rarest find, and popular misses.
  • Medal mix: See how today’s scores broke down — bronze, silver, gold, platinum — and where you landed.
  • Full stats: Tap “Show full stats” for a deep dive: you vs the room, zone breakdowns, opening moves, and more.

Better lists starting August 1

We heard you: too many lists felt subjective or rested on thin sources. Starting August 1, every Top 100 gets a stricter research pass.

What’s new
  • You called it out: Feedback kept coming that some rankings felt too vibes-based, or leaned on shaky / hard-to-verify sources. Fair.
  • More objective from Aug 1: New daily lists will prioritize clear methodology, named primary sources, and honest notes when a ranking has to be hybrid or approximate.
  • Same game, sharper answers: The format isn't changing — just the bar for what makes the Top 100. Expect fewer "says who?" moments.

Guess distribution & Arcade upgrades

See how the whole community guessed — and hunt gaps in Arcade Mode more easily.

What’s new
  • Guess distribution: The results screen now shows a 100-bar chart of what players guessed. Tall bars = obvious picks; short bars = deep cuts. Your answers light up on the chart.
  • Arcade toggles: In Arcade Mode, sort found answers by rank and hide misses so the list stays clean while you hunt.
  • Rank strip: A hoverable 1–100 tick strip shows exactly which ranks you still need to find in Arcade Mode.

Community stats & Revamped UI

You can now see how you compare to the rest of the world.

What’s new
  • Global stats: See today's rarest find, most guessed answers, and popular misses.
  • Cleaner Results: We've reorganized the stats screen to put your results and the share button front and center.

Smarter matching & more personality

We've completely overhauled how answers are matched to handle typos much better, and gave the game a bit more attitude.

What’s new
  • Typo forgiveness: The game now understands transposed letters, missing words, and messy spelling, automatically accepting obvious typos and suggesting the rest.
  • Feedback with attitude: The text above the input bar now reacts dynamically to your guesses. Look out for special messages when you hit certain landmark ranks!

"Did you mean" suggestions

We heard your complaints about Centumth accepting answers you didn't mean — so now you confirm suggestions before they're counted.

What’s new
  • "Did you mean…?" suggestions: If your guess is close (typo/partial), Centumth will suggest matches instead of auto-accepting.
  • You stay in control: Click a suggestion to count it, or hit "No" to submit exactly what you typed.
  • Fewer false positives: This should stop random "snap" matches when you type something unrelated.

Arcade Mode is here

A lot of you asked for a way to keep playing after your 5 official guesses, so I built it.

What’s new
  • Arcade Mode: After you finish your 5 guesses, keep guessing to try to find all 100 answers.
  • Official score stays locked: Your share/stats are still based on the first 5 guesses.
  • Reveal flow: Revealing the full list locks Arcade Mode for that topic (to keep it fair).
  • Quality-of-life UI: Clearer navigation, progress, and automatic scrolling as you add guesses.

Keep the feedback coming, it's how the game improves fastest.
