Musicle.fun

Musicle at musicle.fun is a daily music connection puzzle made by Reuben Johns. Each day's puzzle is dated and shows two artist cards: the start and the target. The aim is to get from one to the other by moving only between artists who have actually worked together.

When you play, the current artist's page lists their collaborators with a photo and the song that links them, and a search box lets you jump to a name in the list. Picking one moves you to that artist, a move counter goes up, a timer runs, and a trail at the top shows the path so far. A Hint button helps when you are stuck. The puzzle is solved when you land on the target, and the fewer moves the better.

Everyone gets the same pair each day, and the game keeps your streak and stats. Hard Mode hides the list so you have to name the collaborators yourself, Play Random Challenge gives extra pairs, and Play with Friends lets a group race to the same target. The site also has a page on which collaborations count and an explorer of its artist graph.

It is a cousin of six-degrees and Wikipedia-chain games, and suits listeners who know who has featured on whose records across pop, hip-hop, rock and older music.
