Bonedle

What Bonedle is

Bonedle is a daily browser puzzle for League of Legends fans who know champions by movement rather than appearance. Instead of showing the champion's model, the game plays one of its real in-game animations on a bare skeleton: a spell cast, an attack, a dance, or a joke. You get three tries to type the champion's name, and each wrong guess unlocks another animation as a fresh clue. The full champion is only revealed after a correct answer or after your three tries are used. More than 170 LoL champions can appear, and once the daily puzzle is done you can replay older days, jump into Endless Mode, or take on 1-, 3-, or 5-minute timed challenges. It runs free in any web browser on phone or computer, needs no account or download, and was created by streamer Pokerick. Bonedle is a fan project and is not endorsed by Riot Games.

How to play

Start by watching the skeleton perform one of the champion's real animations. Rotate or turn the model to get a better view of its posture and motion. Type the name of the champion you think it is and submit your guess. If the guess is wrong, another animation clue unlocks automatically. You have three tries per daily puzzle. After a correct guess or after all three wrong guesses, the full champion is shown. After finishing the daily puzzle, you can return to past puzzles, play Endless Mode, or try the 1-, 3-, or 5-minute timed challenges.

Tips

1. Watch the full animation before guessing; the way the skeleton moves can reveal whether the champion is casting, attacking, dancing, or joking.
2. Rotate the model to inspect it from different angles, as the skeleton's pose and motion may look different from the front.
3. Use your wrong guesses deliberately, since each one gives you another animation and brings you closer to a confident answer.
