Dartle What Dartle Means
People looking up “dartle meaning” are not all looking for the daily puzzle. I split the word, the game creature, and the 100-point board so this page does not pretend they are one thing.
The verb
Wiktionary records verb senses involving darting movement, piercing, and shining through. As a noun, it can refer to a flicker of light or a flitting movement. Its 1855 quotation is from Robert Browning’s poem My Star, collected in Men and Women. The word does not establish the daily game’s name origin. See the Wiktionary entry for pronunciation and citations.
The creature in Oxygen Not Included
Dartle also names a critter discussed by Oxygen Not Included players. It is unrelated to the daily exactly-100 puzzle. For current feeding, production and ranching details, consult the community ONI wiki. This guide does not publish unverified creature statistics or reuse the wiki’s art.
The daily game
The puzzle at dartle.net is the one this site follows: one category, up to three values, exactly 100. The rules are on How to Play. Issue 1 on that site was 29 Sep 2026.
dartle.io and Rosa Dartle
Earlier research on 24 Oct 2026 recorded dartle.io redirecting toward localhost:3000. A later check also could not open a working product, so this guide does not recommend it as a playable game. The separate App Store listing Dartle iBeacon Locator (id 904211297, conneqtech bv) is a beacon tool; its version 1.0.0 is dated 9 Sep 2015. It is not this puzzle’s iPhone client.
Rosa Dartle is a character in Charles Dickens’s David Copperfield, companion to Mrs Steerforth. She is fiction from 1850, not a game mode. A public-domain illustration exists; I am not using a portrait here.
