The daily challenge
Every day at midnight in Lagos a new night opens that every player gets the same. Your first run of the day is ranked on a board of the 100 best profits.

What is the suya game daily challenge?
One night a day that every player gets the same: the date picks the night’s seed, so the same customers come in the same order with the same weather, at the same preset stall. Only your grilling is different, so the day’s profits can be compared fairly.
Tap “Daily challenge” on the title screen, or open the daily challenge page. Its screen shows the date, tonight’s events as they really are (no forecast: it is the same night for everyone), the stall, the board and whether your next run is ranked.
Which stall do I play?
Never your own: a preset stall, the same every day, so your career is not touched (only the streak below is written to it).
- Agege, on night 5.
- Beef, chicken, liver, gizzard and kidney to sell.
- Charcoal grill level 2, charcoal stove level 1, cooler level 1; no other upgrades, no regulars, no loan.
- ₦8,000 and one free bag of charcoal. The morning has only the “Stock” tab: buy what you think the night needs.
Which run counts?
Only your first run of the day. It counts from the moment you tap Play, so leaving it half-way uses it up too; later runs that day are practice, played and shown but never ranked. The board keeps one run per browser and, signed in, one per account, whichever phone it came from.
The day changes at midnight Lagos time (UTC+1). A run started just before midnight still counts for its own date if you finish it within 60 minutes after.
How does the Mai Suya leaderboard work?
When your ranked run ends, the game sends its replay: the stall, the morning’s buys and every tap. The server re-plays the whole night on the game’s own engine from the preset stall and ranks the profit it gets itself, so a run that does not re-play exactly is not ranked. The summary says where you landed, “On the board: #12 of 340”.
The board lists the top 100 by profit (then by customers served, then by who finished first), refreshed every 60 seconds, with your own place below it. Players who are not signed in show as “Guest stall”; signed in, the board shows your stall name’s initials.
No connection when the night ends? The game tries three times, says “Ranked run saved · will retry”, and sends it again the next time you open the game while the day still counts. A shared daily card opens that day’s board for 30 days; its Play then plays that night as practice.
What do daily streaks earn?
Finish your ranked run on days in a row: 3 days earn the naija green signboard, and 7 days earn the gold signboard. Pick it in Settings once you have it; a missed day starts the count again, and the colours you earned stay.
