Actorle Fill The Grid

Fill The Grid is one of the daily games on Actorle, the actor-guessing site made by László Kiss. It takes the three by three grid that Immaculate Grid made popular for baseball and fills it with films: three titles down the side, three across the top, and nine empty squares where they meet.

For each square you type the name of an actor who appeared in both the row's film and the column's film. Some squares have several right answers, so a well-known lead and a supporting player can both count. A header may also be a category rather than a film, such as Oscar winner. You get sixteen guesses for the whole board and can fill the squares in any order; a wrong name costs a guess, and the grid ends when it is full or the guesses run out.

Every grid is numbered and tied to a date, and the site changes to the next one at midnight on your own device's clock. Missed days are kept in a free archive, and the Actorle iPhone and iPad app carries the same daily grid with your streak synced if you sign in. Actorle Plus, the optional membership, removes ads and adds extras such as streak repair, but the daily grid itself is free.

Compared with Movie Grid, where you name films that fit two clues, Fill The Grid turns the question around and asks for the people in front of the camera. It suits players who remember who was in what, including the second and third names on the poster.
