How to play

One picture, 25 seconds, as many tries as you like: find it before time runs out.

1. 1Everyone sees the same image at the same time: a game's cover (title hidden), artwork or screenshot, or a studio or publisher logo. Once everyone has found a game, a follow-up may ask for its release year.
2. 2Unlimited tries for 25 seconds: every miss gives hints (same franchise, same studio, earlier or later year…).
3. 3Free mode: everyone has one joker per game. It turns the current round into multiple choice for you only (4 answers, one try). Not on bonus rounds.
4. 4Everyone starts with 3 lives (the host can set 1 to 9): you only lose one if you haven't found it when time runs out. The round ends as soon as everyone has found it (or answered, in multiple choice).
5. 5A bonus round now and then (if the host checked it): the blurred artwork, sharper and sharper. The first to find it wins a life (or an extra one).
6. 6The last player alive wins. Alone, you have two modes: ranked or custom.
7. 7Ranked solo: the same rules for everyone (free mode, 25 s, 3 lives, every round kind including the bonus, every game genre), with more and more obscure games as rounds go by. It's the only score that counts in the ranking.
8. 8Custom solo: your own settings, with a personal record for each combination of settings (not counted in the ranking).
