Guess movies that match pairs of criteria until all clues have been used.
Movie Reveal
What is Movie Reveal?
Movie Reveal is a daily movie-guessing puzzle in which you identify a hidden film by buying clues. Each clue costs points from a limited budget, and you have only a few guesses to name the movie. It was created by Sam Shulman, Alex Nunan, and Tyler Whitmore, the team behind other movie puzzle games.

Finally a daily movie puzzle that rewards holding out for the deep-cut cast and crew clues instead of just the obvious poster.

Perfect little brain break — you can poke at a few clues on your commute without needing a whole evening.
How to play Movie Reveal
You start with 200 points and five guesses. Spend points to reveal clues such as cast members, directors, genres, release year, runtime, Oscar nominations, box office, and critic ratings, then use the information to guess the movie. Revealing cheaper clues helps you stretch your points further before committing to a guess.
Tips & strategy
- Reveal broad clues like genres, release year, and runtime early to narrow the field without spending many points.
- Use cheap rating clues, such as IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes scores, to confirm a film you already suspect.
- Actor clues get cheaper from Actor 1 to Actor 3, so avoid expensive early cast reveals unless you are stuck.
- If you recognize the director or writer, that clue may narrow things down faster than collecting several actor names.
- Keep your five guesses in reserve and only submit when you have enough evidence to avoid wasting one on a hunch.
