Emoji Game challenges players to use a selection of emoji — including Genmoji created using Apple Intelligence — to fill in the blanks of three short phrases using as few moves as possible.

Each phrase is accompanied by a clue, which the user can choose to reveal, but that will count toward the player’s total number of moves.

Results can be tracked on Game Center leaderboards, or shared with friends and family through Messages, Mail, social media, or other platforms.

Subscribers can access daily and archived Emoji Game puzzles in the Puzzles section of the Apple News app.

Apple News+ subscribers will also be able to access Emoji Game this fall through the Apple Games app, an all-new destination designed to help players jump back into the games they love, find their next favourite, and have more fun with friends.

“Emoji Game is the perfect addition to the Apple News+ suite of word and number puzzles, turning the emoji we use every day into a brainteaser that’s approachable and fun,” said Lauren Kern, editor-in-chief of Apple News.

Emoji Game joins existing Apple News+ puzzles like crossword, crossword mini, Quartiles, and sudoku.

Emoji Game is now available in English for Apple News+ subscribers in the U.S. and Canada.
