Runedle
Somewhere in Gielinor is today's mystery NPC. Runedle checks each guess against it on five traits and colors every one so you can close in.
How Runedle works
Name an NPC. Type a character name into the box and pick it from the list.
Compare the traits. Each trait of your guess is checked against the answer.
Green, orange or red. Green is a match, orange is partly right, and red is wrong.
Find today's NPC. Use the clues to narrow it down and guess again.
What each trait tells you
- Gender: halves the list straight away
- Race: splits humans from dwarves, gnomes, elves and more
- Region: the area of the map where the NPC lives
- Combat level: tells shopkeepers and quest givers from fighters
- Release date: places the NPC in the history of the game
A good opening guess
Start with a well known NPC from a busy region, ideally one with a combat level above zero. You learn about the region, race and level all at once. If the region comes back wrong, switch to a very different area on your next try instead of a neighbour.
Common Runedle questions
Where is the Runedle Expert answer today?
We do not post Normal or Expert answers. In Expert, lean on region arrows and release date, since the NPCs are too obscure to guess by fame.
Is there a new Runedle every day?
Yes. A new mystery NPC is set every day.
What is Expert mode?
A harder mode with a wider pool of NPCs, including many that casual players never meet.
Is there a colourblind option?
Yes. Settings has a Colourblind Mode.
Is Runedle official?
No. It is an independent fan game, not part of RuneScape itself.
Runedle strategy
- Turn on region arrows in Settings. They point you toward the right part of the map.
- Combat level splits the list fast. Many quest and shop NPCs are level 0.
- Try Expert only when you know the game well. It reaches deep into lesser known NPCs.
- Orange on a trait means part of it is right. Keep that part and change the rest.
