About JoJodle

JoJodle is a daily character-guessing game for people who have watched, read, or argued about JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Every day at 00:00 UTC a single character from the manga is picked, and your job is to work out who it is with as few guesses as possible.

Why we built it

Wordle proved that a one-minute daily puzzle with a shareable result can hold attention for years. JoJo's cast — 217+ characters across nine parts — is perfect source material for that format: each character has a clean set of attributes (part, role, Stand, nationality, hair) that make attribute-by-attribute guessing both readable and satisfying.

We also wanted a version that was content-first: easy to discover from search, indexable per character, and readable on a phone in ten seconds — without requiring a login, a Discord, or a mobile app.

How it works, briefly

  • Every puzzle is chosen deterministically from a fixed seeded shuffle, so every player worldwide gets the same character on the same UTC day.
  • Comparisons run entirely in your browser. Nothing about your guesses or stats is sent to a server.
  • Streak and stats live in your browser's local storage. Clearing site data resets them — there's no server-side backup.

Play today's puzzle or browse the full roster of 217 characters.

How the site is funded

JoJodle is free to play, with no accounts, no paywalls, and no mandatory sign-up. Running costs (hosting, domain) are offset by lightweight display ads served through Google AdSense and anonymised analytics through Google Analytics. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time from the cookie banner or on our cookie policy page.

Tech

Built on Next.js with TypeScript, Tailwind, and Zustand, and deployed on Vercel. Character portraits are sourced from the community-maintained JoJo Fandom wiki and cached as small WebP thumbnails.

A sincere thank-you

JoJodle only exists because Hirohiko Araki has been drawing the most audacious cast in manga for nearly forty years. If this game helped someone rediscover an old favourite or discover a character for the first time, we're happy. Go read the manga.
