The Daily Five is Global Habit's one-shot daily challenge. Every UTC midnight a new pairing goes live: two countries chosen by deterministic seed, five categories drawn from the full pool of fourteen. Every player who opens the daily before midnight sees the exact same matchup — the same Argentina vs. Switzerland, the same five statistics, the same order. Score zero to five; you get one attempt.

The rules

Look at the first country's number for the current category. Decide whether the second country's number is higher or lower. Pick. Move on. After all five rounds the result page shows your tally, a short editorial verdict, and two trivia facts pulled from the category's editorial pool.

A perfect 5/5 extends your perfect-streak counter. Anything under 5/5 resets it to zero — the streak is for players who want their daily run to mean something, not just for showing up.

World Cup Edition

On selected days the daily switches to the World Cup Edition: 74 nations that have ever played a World Cup, ten football-specific categories like total matches won, World Cup goals, knockout-round appearances, and matches lost in the tournament. The format is identical — five rounds, one shot — but the data set rewards different kinds of knowledge.

Why it's daily

The point of the Daily Five is to make geography a tiny daily habit rather than something you sit down to study. Wordle showed that a one-attempt-per-day pattern keeps people coming back for years; the Daily Five borrows that frame for world knowledge.
