Sortie!

Sortie! is a free daily flight challenge. Answer prompts, compete on the daily leaderboard, and fly as far as you can.

Each day brings a new mission. Sign in to claim a callsign, post an official score, and climb the ranks — or practice in Fly The Archive anytime.

How to Play

Each day brings a new challenge. Six brand new questions with different prompts and rules to score as many points as you can. You have 5 seconds to read, then 25 seconds to answer. Play the Classic version which spans questions from geography to politics to science to pop culture — or try our new “Sportie” version with questions from the biggest leagues around the world.

Every answer is ranked against the rest of that prompt’s bank based off the question’s rule. Answers fall into six categories from Mach to Stall. There’s only a single #1 answer for each question — that’s a Mach. A perfect flight is 750. Tiers run from Mach (125) through Burner (90), Cruise (65), Climb (30), and Float (10). Stall, when the clock runs out, scores 0.

Classic and Sportie each have their own daily board. Highest score ranks first, and ties share a place. Daily scores from the month add together, and the top three earn Top Gun, Wingman, and Formation Flyer. A signed-in pilot is listed under their callsign. A guest is listed under a guest name.

About

Welcome to Sortie! I built this site because I love all things daily games and wanted to create one that had a defined and verifiable answer bank. With six new questions everyday - and a new sports version - I hope Sortie earns its way into your daily game routine. Thanks for playing and good luck!

Scoring & the Leaderboard

FAQ

When does the daily mission reset?

At midnight on your device. The Next Briefing timer counts down to it.

What is Fly The Archive?

Practice. Each flight is six prompts mixed from days that are no longer live, so today’s questions join after the reset. Classic and Sportie each have an archive. Fly them as often as you want — those scores stay off the leaderboard.

How do callsigns work?

Your callsign is the name on the leaderboard and in your logbook. Play with a guest account or sign in to create and edit your own - no e-mail required.
