Artle Game

Artle Game is a free browser quiz built on the open access collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Each round puts one artwork on the screen, usually a painting, and you type the name of the artist who made it. The images and details are loaded through the museum's public Collection API. It is an independent fan project with no tie to the museum.

The game opens in Unlimited mode, where each round draws a random work. Turning on Daily challenge in the settings switches to the shared puzzle: one artwork per day, the same for everyone. You have six attempts by default, and a skip uses one of them; the settings let you change the total to three or ten. A new daily artwork arrives at midnight UTC, and the end screen counts down to it.

If a name will not come, up to four hints can be opened one at a time: the period, the medium, the artist's nationality and years, and finally the first letter of the artist's name. Harder options include turning off name suggestions, and a Blur challenge where the artwork starts blurred and sharpens with each guess. Unlimited mode can also widen the pool beyond paintings to drawings, sculpture and other works.

Wins, games played and streaks are kept in your browser, with no account. At the end of each round the answer is shown with a link to the work's page on The Met's website, so a miss still teaches you something. It suits anyone who likes museums, art history quizzes or Wordle-style daily guessing.
