Games like Immaculate Grid

Immaculate Grid, from Sports Reference, is a nine-square board of baseball trivia. Each row and column carries a team or an achievement, and every square needs a player who fits both, such as someone who played for two particular franchises. You get nine guesses for nine squares, and a rarity score rewards picks few other people made. The satisfaction is digging up a forgotten name that fits perfectly.

Every pick uses crossing categories or rewards deep knowledge of players. The other Sports Reference grids come first, then independent grids for other sports, then grids about Pokémon, countries and movies for anyone who wants the format without the box scores.

Questions

How does the Immaculate Grid rarity score work?

Each correct answer gets a percentage showing how many other players picked the same person for that square. Your rarity score adds those percentages together, and any square left empty counts as 100, so a lower total is better. A full grid of obscure but correct names can finish in the single digits.

Can I change an answer or use a player twice?

No to both. Each guess is final once submitted, whether right or wrong, and a player can only be used once per grid. That is why it pays to fill the squares you are surest of first and save the trickier intersections for the end, when you know which names are still free.

Is there an Immaculate Grid for other sports?

Sports Reference also runs editions for pro football, men's and women's basketball, hockey and soccer, all listed above. For a version with no guess limit, Hoopgrids lets you keep trying on each NBA square, and Pokedoku and GeoGrid apply the format to Pokémon and countries.
