Actorle

Actorle shows you a career instead of a face. The day's actor is represented by a list of their films with every title redacted into crosses, while three things stay visible: the release year, the genre tags, and the IMDb score. One board opened on a 1985 film tagged Action, Thriller, Drama and Adventure at 7.2. Above the list a range indicator brackets the actor's age. The mechanic that drives everything is stated on the page: guess an actor who starred in one of the movies and that movie's title is revealed.

1. Read the filmography before guessing: the years bracket a career, the genres suggest a type of role, the IMDb scores separate the prestige work from the paycheques.
2. Type an actor into the search field. If they starred in one of the listed films, that title is revealed.
3. Use those revealed titles to place the career, then narrow towards the actor the whole list belongs to.
4. Watch the age indicator above the list. It rules out anyone too young to have made the earliest film.

The reveal rule turns a guessing game into an excavation. You are not only guessing the target. You are spending guesses on co-stars to uncover titles, and every uncovered title reshapes what the filmography looks like. That makes a wrong answer productive in a way almost no other daily game manages, and it rewards a kind of knowledge that is genuinely social: knowing who worked with whom. The genre tags and years do the rest, sketching a career arc (a run of eighties action, a nineties drama turn) that is often recognisable before a single title appears.

Two channels. Naming the right actor ends the game; naming a co-star from any listed film unblanks that film's title, which is the game's real currency. The unredacted metadata (year, genre chips, IMDb rating), never changes, so the board reads as a career shape from the first second, and the age bracket above the list narrows who could plausibly have made those films.

• Spend early guesses on prolific co-stars rather than on your best theory. A character actor who appears in three of the listed films reveals three titles at once.
• Genre chips age well: a run of Action and Adventure in the eighties followed by Drama in the nineties is a career shape, not a coincidence.
• The IMDb column tells you which films the actor is known for. Guess co-stars from the highest-rated entries. Those casts are the easiest to recall.
