About this puzzle

Moviedle (moviedle.xyz) is a daily guess-the-movie game built around the cast list. Each wrong guess reveals another actor — first only their age at the film’s release and gender, then the name — and your guesses also unlock hints about the director, writers, genre and release year, so you narrow the film down clue by clue. This page is part of our complete daily archive, updated every morning with the day’s movie.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Moviedle?
Moviedle is a free daily movie trivia game at moviedle.xyz. You get a limited number of guesses to name a mystery film; the cast is revealed one actor at a time (with age at release), and the director, writers, genres and year unlock as hints. It is not the same as the one-second-clip game at moviedle.app.
Why is the title blurred until I tap?
So you can read the cast and hints without spoiling a puzzle you haven’t finished. Tap “Reveal the movie” to unblur the answer.
Is there a new Moviedle every day?
Yes — one film per calendar day, the same for every player. The game uses your local date, so we publish on the US Eastern day. The puzzle number counts up from the game’s first daily on October 29, 2022.
