Like Wordle, Framed gives you six chances to guess the day's possible answer. Instead of guessing a word, though, you're guessing the title of a movie.

Framed starts out by giving you one frame from the film of the day. If you get the answer wrong, it gives you a second image, and so on and so forth until you've reached your sixth chance. Unlike Wordle, you don't get any additional hints on how close your incorrect answers are to the correct one. However, the chosen film frames get a bit more obvious as your guesses run out. For example, even if a game of Framed opens with a shot you don't recognize, later images usually include stills of iconic scenes or even the film's main character.

Framed has the bonus advantage of being a gateway to film recommendations. If you strike out on one day's puzzle but think the film's visuals looked cool, check it out! You'll get that extra sense of satisfaction when you recognize the stills that Framed used.

Actorle

If you've ever scrolled obsessively through an actor's IMDb page, chances are you'll be a powerhouse at Actorle. This Wordle clone gives you a list of movies, and your job is to guess the name of the actor who has appeared in all of them. The catch? The names of all the films are redacted.

Don't worry, you still get some information. Each unknown film title from the actor of the day's resume comes with the movie's release year, genres, and IMDb rating. And if you're a stickler for details, take a closer look at the redacted titles: All the letters have been replaced by Xs, and none have been added or subtracted from the title. If you have your suspicions about a movie title and the number of letters matches, chances are you're correct.

Actorle gives you eight guesses instead of the standard Wordle six, which is helpful because there are a few moving parts to the hints you'll receive once you get going. When you type in an actor's name, you'll learn whether they were in any movies on the redacted list and roughly how close in age they are to the actor of the day. Here's an example of a guess:

When you guess the name of an actor who has appeared with the mystery actor, their name is highlighted in yellow, and the film they were in is revealed and highlighted in green. Based on the image above, you can tell that the actor of the day starred in Michael Clayton alongside George Clooney. If an actor wasn't in any of the redacted movies on the list, their name will be highlighted in red, as Jessica Chastain's is above.

If you guess an actor incorrectly, you'll also see their age, which will be highlighted in red or yellow. If the number is yellow, there is an age gap of less than 10 years between your guess and the day's answer. If it's red, the age gap is greater than 10 years. From the image above, you can tell that the mystery is more than 10 years older than 44, and less than 10 years older than 60, placing their age in the 61 to 71 range.

Like Framed, Actorle comes with the bonus reward of possibly discovering new actors and new movies. If you love the actor of the day but haven't heard of or seen all the movies on their list, this daily puzzle is the perfect way to add something new to your watchlist.
