Features

Built for fans who live and breathe the box score.

Color-coded feedback, streaks, sharable results — everything you need to get hooked and stay hooked.

Six guesses, five hints a guess

Each guess reveals how close you are across conference, division, team, position, and jersey number. Narrow the field like a pro scout.

🔥

Streaks that matter

Every league keeps its own streak. Win any one of that league's dailies and the day counts. Skip it, or play without solving one, and you start over.

📤

Share the grid

Brag or commiserate with a color-coded result grid in any group chat. No spoilers, just 🟩🟨🟥 bragging rights.

Accessible by design

Color is never the only channel. Feedback tiles use strikes and chevrons. VoiceOver labels every state. WCAG AA+ on every screen.

🎯

Eight puzzles a day

NFL and NHL each get three dailies — Easy, Medium, and Hard, split by position. MLB and NBA get one from the full roster. Solved them all? Practice mode never runs out.

No accounts, no tracking

Your streak lives on your device. No sign-ups, no accounts, no data resold. Ads are served by Google and you control tracking with a one-tap prompt. Remove ads with a $3.99/year subscription — cancel anytime.

1

Choose your league

NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL — with WNBA and soccer coming soon. NFL and NHL run three dailies a day, one per difficulty.

Read the feedback

Green = match. Yellow + chevron = close (higher or lower). Red + strike = eliminated. Truly stuck? Spend your one hint.

Frequently asked

Answers for new fans.

Is Roster Rush free?

Yes. The daily game is free across all four leagues. Remove Ads is an optional $3.99/year subscription that auto-renews until you cancel — manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings.

Do I need to create an account?

No. Your streak and stats live on your device, and we never ask for an email or password.

How many puzzles are there each day?

Eight. NFL and NHL each get three — Easy, Medium, and Hard — and MLB and NBA each get one. They're independent, so solving NFL Easy leaves NFL Hard waiting for you. New puzzles drop at midnight ET.

What do the difficulty tiers mean?

Position, not obscurity. In the NFL, Easy is skill players (QB, RB, WR, TE), Medium adds linemen and defense, and Hard brings in kickers and punters. The NHL works the same way: forwards, then defense, then goalies. Every answer is a current player — there's no all-time or retired pool.

What happens after I finish the daily?

Practice. That league and difficulty keeps serving random players for as long as you want to play. Practice rounds never affect your streak or your stats — only the dailies count.

I missed a day. Did I lose my streak?

Yes. Streaks are per league and count consecutive days you won at least one of that league's dailies. Skip a day, or play without solving one, and that league's streak goes back to zero. Your all-time stats stay.

Which devices are supported?

Roster Rush runs on iPhone and iPad, iOS 15.1 and later. The game is portrait-oriented and fully accessible with VoiceOver and Dynamic Type. Today's puzzles are cached, so you can play them offline.

Where do the rosters come from?

Public roster data, refreshed daily — so trades, call-ups, and number changes show up fast.

How do I contact support?

Email support@roster-rush.app.

Is Roster Rush affiliated with the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, or WNBA?

No. Roster Rush is an independent fan-made game. League names and team identifiers are used descriptively. We are not endorsed by or affiliated with any professional sports league.
