Big Brotherdle

Big Brotherdle sits on survivordle.com beside the Survivor game that came first, built by Charlie Hart, a fan, for the US Big Brother audience. The answer is a houseguest's particular season, so a player who returned counts once for each time they played, and the search lists each appearance with its season so you pick the one you mean.

Each guess fills a row of columns: season, placement, gender, competition wins, whether they were a returnee, and age. A tile turns green for an exact match and orange for a close one, and arrows on season, placement and age tell you whether the answer is higher or lower. You have eight guesses and the puzzle is numbered; a new houseguest goes live at midnight Eastern time, taken from a fixed shuffle so that no one repeats until the whole cast has come up.

After a guess or two, two hints open: Reveal Outcome says whether the answer went out before the jury, sat on it, reached the finale or won, and Reveal Evicted Neighbors names the houseguests evicted just before and after them. Hints count in your stats, and there is a Give Up button. Streaks, win rate and the guess spread are kept in your browser.

Beside the daily puzzle the site has an archive of past days, an unlimited mode with a random houseguest each round, and two more modes, Recall and Sandwich; in Sandwich you name the houseguest who finished between two others from the same season. The full Big Brother 28 cast is in the pool. It suits viewers who remember who won which competitions as well as who won the season. The site is free and carries ads.
