We’ll come right out and say it: this one confused us like you wouldn’t believe when we first started playing The Password Game. After struggling for hours to figure out the fifth rule and flying through the rest, we encountered this one and had to sit there for a few minutes to figure out what we were reading. After some time, we did figure it out, and we’re happy to share the details with you all. If you want to learn more, continue reading to figure out how to include the moon’s current phase as an emoji in your The Password Game answers.

The Password Game Rule 13 Guide – Current Phase of the Moon Emoji
Moon phases change every few days, cycling between eight different ones:
- New Moon – 🌑
- Waxing Crescent – 🌒
- First Quarter – 🌓
- Waxing Gibbous – 🌔
- Full Moon – 🌕
- Waning Gibbous – 🌖
- Third Quarter – 🌗
- Waning Crescent – 🌘
Copy and Paste All Moon Emojis for The Password Game
Depending on the current cycle, you’ll have to copy-paste the appropriate emoji into the password text box to solve the rule and move on to the next. For example, as of updating this article on September 27, the current moon phase is Waxing Gibbous, with dates like September 22 and September 29 changing to First Quarter and Full Moon, respectively. You can find the current moon phase through sites like Time and Date.
Here are all of the moons in a single row: 🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘
If you cannot copy-paste the emojis from the list above, you can use sites like FSymbols to access the moons easily.
Alternatively, if you don’t want to check Time and Date for the exact moon phase, copy+paste all eight emojis into the password box until one works. Admittedly, this is the strategy we used at first, and it worked surprisingly well. Following various failed attempts, we repeatedly pasted the same moon emoji, as we remembered the correct answer after a few tries.
Once you complete this Password Game rule, you’ll move on to the next one, arguably more challenging than this one, depending on your luck. Good luck!
