The Daily Puzzle is a daily feature which began April 26, 2007, when Neopets was redesigned with Neopets 2.0. Initially displayed on the website's front page, it was later relocated to the Pet Central page on May 1, 2008. The Daily Puzzle is updated every day (with exceptions) with a new Neopets-related multiple-choice question. If the user answers correctly, they would be awarded a set prize of Neopoints, and item, or a combination of both.
