App updates can occasionally reorder levels. If this level 205 walkthrough doesn’t match what you see, no problem! Use our All Levels directory to locate your exact puzzle by image.
For example, if it is Saturday the 7th, type 76 (7 for the day, 6 for Saturday).
Level Overview
What Makes This Puzzle Tricky
You’re greeted with a minimalist, mysterious phrase: "day of the month, day of the week." No equations. No hidden clues. Just a blank keypad and two short lines of text. It feels like the game expects you to already know a secret language—but the key isn’t buried in the app. It’s in your real-world calendar.
Your Goal
Your goal is to input a dynamic numeric code based on live, real-time information—specifically, the current date and weekday from your device. You’re not decoding symbols; you’re submitting a timestamp.
Key Mechanics:
- Real-world dependency: The game pulls your phone’s system clock.
- Daily-changing answer: What works today won’t work tomorrow.
- Simple conversion: Translate weekday names into their corresponding digits. This isn’t a logic puzzle—it’s a calendar sync.
What Appears on Your Screen
The interface is stripped down—and that simplicity is part of the challenge.
- Top Center: Two orange lines: "day of the month, day of the week." The comma clearly divides the two required components.
- Middle: A clean input field awaiting your answer, plus a small refresh/submit button beside it.
- Bottom: A standard numeric keypad (0–9).
- There are zero red herrings. No decoy elements. What you see is exactly what you need.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
The Trap
Players instinctively treat this like a traditional cipher—counting letters in “month” or “week,” hunting for an in-game calendar, or assuming the answer is fixed. The real trap? Believing the solution lives inside the game. It doesn’t—it lives on your lock screen.
First Instincts That Fail
- Adding the two numbers (e.g., 7 + 6 = 13).
- Guessing common PINs like "1234" or "0000."
- Entering the full year or month number.
Player Reactions
I spent way too long wondering if “month” referred to October = 10. I tried “102” for October 2nd and Tuesday—nope. It wasn’t until I re-read the prompt literally that it clicked: it’s just asking for today’s calendar date, plain and simple.
Step-by-Step Solution
Preparing the Move
Pause the game. Glance at your phone’s status bar—or open your clock app. You only need two values:
- The Day of the Month: (e.g., if it’s the 24th, use 24).
- The Day of the Week: Convert it to its numeric position. Monday = 1 Tuesday = 2 Wednesday = 3 Thursday = 4 Friday = 5 Saturday = 6 Sunday = 7
- Monday = 1
- Tuesday = 2
- Wednesday = 3
- Thursday = 4
- Friday = 5
- Saturday = 6
- Sunday = 7
Executing the Solution
- Enter the date first. If today is the 15th, type 15 .
- Then enter the weekday digit. If today is Wednesday, type 3 .
- Merge them. For the 15th + Wednesday, your final input is 153 .
- Tap the Enter/Refresh button next to the input box.
If It Did Not Work
- Did midnight pass while you were thinking? If you’re playing near 11:59 PM, the answer may update mid-attempt.
- Single-digit dates: For the 5th, type 5—not 05. So 5th + Monday = 51.
- Order is locked: Always [Date][Weekday]. Swapping them will fail.
Why This Solution Works
This level uses a classic “fourth-wall break”—it reaches outside the game to pull data from your device’s OS. Most puzzles are self-contained; this one deliberately breaks that rule. That’s why static guides fall short—the answer shifts daily. Success depends entirely on grasping the pattern, not memorizing a number.
Bonus Tip
If you’re uncertain about the weekday numbering:
- Open your phone’s clock or calendar app to confirm today’s date and day.
- Remember: Monday is always 1 here. Even if your calendar shows Sunday first, this game follows the ISO-aligned convention where Monday starts the week.
- Skip the month entirely—only the day-of-month matters (1 through 31).
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My answer isn’t working even though I have the right date? A: Verify your weekday number—Monday must be 1, Sunday must be 7. Also, avoid leading zeros (use "9", not "09").
Q: Is Sunday 1 or 7? A: Sunday is 7. Monday is 1—no exceptions.
Q: Does the Month matter? A: Not at all. Whether it’s March or December, only the day number counts.
Q: Can I cheat by changing my phone date? A: Technically yes—but resetting your system clock takes longer than typing the correct date!
