The rules
How scoring works
Guess early, score more
Each question starts with just a portrait and category. Guess right away or reveal clues first — but every clue lowers your potential points. The name is only shown after you call it.
Portrait only
Category tag visible
After 1 clue
“Known for…” description revealed
All clues
Nationality and peak-fame decade revealed
Wrong answers cost you half the potential points for that stage.
Confidence wager
Before each guess, set a wager to multiply the stakes. Higher wagers mean bigger rewards — and bigger penalties.
Up to 100
−50 if wrong
Up to 200
−100 if wrong
Up to 300
−150 if wrong
Bonus round
After all ten calls, you get a bonus round. For each person you guessed right, place their birth or death year on a slider. The closer you land, the more you steal.
The bonus round is optional — skip it entirely or skip individual questions with no penalty.
Maximum score
Call every face from the portrait at 3×, then nail all ten bonus years, and you top out here.
3,750
10 × 300 (3× at portrait) + 10 × 75 (exact year)
Share your score
After each game, share your results without spoiling a single answer.
