SEVEN MOMENTS · ONE GUESS EACH

The game loads from eraly.io only after you press play. Eraly is made by eraly.io.

The frame is eraly.io itself. A third-party frame can split storage, so a streak saved here may not match a streak saved on eraly.io. Infinite needs a Google sign-in, which works more reliably on eraly.io. Visitors in the EU, UK and Switzerland may see eraly.io’s own cookie notice inside the frame.

What I saw on October 27, 2026

I played the October 27, 2026 journey myself in a desktop browser, one guess per moment, with the 25-second clock running. I did not copy the question text. After the seventh moment the result screen showed the date “ERALY · 27 OCT” and a time log of seven years: 1962, 1986, 1862, 1918, 2002, 1673, 1942. My own score that sitting was nowhere near 700. The bands still lit the way the about page describes: exact year 100, then 85, 60, 30, 10, and a blank answer is 0.

Eraly at eraly.io is a browser game. I found no App Store, Steam or download build on the official site when I checked on 2026-10-27. It is not the English word “early”, not a Belgian funeral notice, and not the historian Abraham Eraly.

Freshness: I played October 27, 2026 by hand. The archive currently contains only that source-checked journey. Missing days are not backfilled from the question API. eraly.io still does not offer past journeys. Source: eraly.io/about, checked 2026-10-27.

Short answers

What is Eraly?
Eraly is the free daily history game at eraly.io. Each day you guess the year of seven moments. One guess each, 25 seconds on the clock, 700 points for a perfect day.
Is the daily game free?
Yes. The daily journey on eraly.io needs no account and shows no ads. Infinite time-travel is a separate one-time purchase of $5, checked on the official Infinite page on 2026-10-27.
When does a new Eraly puzzle start?
The official About page says local midnight. Existing research records one timezone experiment on 27 October 2026, not a multi-day observation. This static guide does not promise to update at every player’s midnight.
Is this the official Eraly website?
No. eraly.xyz is an unofficial guide, not affiliated with eraly.io. The embedded game loads from eraly.io; use that exact address for direct play or Infinite purchases. The official no-ads policy does not describe this independent guide.
How much of the daily answer history is recorded here?
Only the manually played 27 October 2026 journey is retained. This is not a complete historical question bank or a playable official archive. Further records require separately documented play and source checks.
Does Infinite sync my daily streak and Wardrobe?
No daily-sync feature is promised. The official About page says streaks and Wardrobe stay on the device used to play. Google sign-in makes Infinite access available across devices, not daily progress.
