Actorle TV

Actorle TV comes from Laszlo Kiss, the maker of Actorle, the daily film game where you name an actor from a masked filmography. This version swaps films for television. Every player gets the same mystery actor each day, and the puzzle is dated on the page.

The board is a table of every series the actor has been in. Titles are masked, but each row shows the year, the show's genres and how many episodes the actor appeared in. A long run in a sitcom from the 1990s or a one-episode guest spot in a crime drama already tells you something about the career you are looking at. A switch lets you show all roles or only the main ones.

You type an actor's name and pick from the suggestions. Any show your guess also appeared in has its title revealed, and an age bar above the table tells you whether the mystery actor is older or younger than the people you have named. You have eight guesses to find the answer.

The site keeps an archive of past days, has groups for playing alongside friends, and links to the maker's other daily film games such as Actorle, Moviedle and Cinections. It suits players who know television casts and like working from scraps of a career.
