How to play
Type a mountain and pick it from the list. The row that appears compares your guess with the mystery answer, one column at a time. Use the colors and arrows to rule things out, then guess again.
Questions
Where does the data come from?
From Wikidata (CC0): height, location and the countries each mountain lies in, for well-documented mountains.
Why do some mountains list two countries?
Peaks on a border belong to both. Sharing one country shows as close.
What counts as a volcano?
Wikidata marks it as a volcano as well as a mountain, for example Mount Fuji and Vesuvius.
How do I read the colors?
Purple means that column matches the answer. Striped yellow means close: a number within range, or related. Gray means no match. An arrow on a number points toward the answer: up if the answer is higher, down if it is lower.
How many guesses do I get?
Eight on most days. After four wrong guesses a hint shows the first letter of the answer, and after six it also shows the length.
What are the weekday twists?
Each day has its own rule. Monday is standard. Tuesday reveals one fact about the answer. Wednesday gives ten guesses. Thursday hides one column in your first three guesses. Friday turns the arrows off. Saturday gives only six guesses. Sunday is hard mode: every guess must be a possible answer given your clues.
When does a new puzzle appear?
At midnight in your time zone, and everyone sees the same answer on the same date.

Tips for Peaklink
- Try a famous high peak first: its height arrow tells you whether to go up or down the range of altitudes.
- Peaks on a border list two countries, and sharing one counts as close.
- Volcanoes cluster along a few belts, so a yes narrows the map fast.
