Guess The Game
guessthe.game · Gaming
Works from a single screenshot rather than a cover, and every miss or skip adds another image, up to six in all, which suits Gamedle players who know games by how they look in play rather than on the shelf.
Games like Gamedle
Gamedle is a set of daily puzzles about recognizing video games, each labeled by difficulty. Cover Art, the easy one, has you identify a title from the box art; Artwork and Characters work from other images; Keywords gives you a handful of descriptive words; and the hard Guess mode offers only a game's specifications. Unlimited versions of three modes, a themed weekly challenge and a beta multiplayer mode with private rooms sit alongside. It rewards players who have spent years staring at game covers and spec sheets.
Image-based games come first, starting with screenshot and cover-art guessers, then games that match Gamedle's Guess mode by comparing release year, platform, developer and genre. Music quizzes follow for players who know games by ear, with a rating puzzle and an album-cover game, which borrow the same recognition skill, closing it out.

Questions
What modes does Gamedle have?
Five daily modes, each with a difficulty label: Cover Art is easy, Artwork, Characters and Keywords are medium, and Guess, which works from a game's specifications, is hard. Cover Art, Keywords and Guess also come in unlimited versions, and a weekly challenge follows a theme, such as games whose stories visit the afterlife.
Can you play Gamedle with friends?
Yes, in a beta multiplayer mode. You open a private room, send friends the invite or a join code, and guess games from their covers together, with no account needed. For solo play beyond the daily set, the unlimited modes keep serving covers, keywords and spec sheets, and supporters can remove ads through Ko-fi.
