## What is Badly Explained?

Guessing movies has never been so badly explained.

“Badly Explained” is a movie quiz for anyone who loves guessing films and putting their movie knowledge to the test.

Over 1,000 movies are waiting to be discovered through deliberately terrible, witty, and hilariously misleading descriptions.

GAME MODES

• Normal Round: Guess 10 movies with increasing difficulty
• Quick Round: Five movies for a quick challenge
• Categories: Choose your favorite movie genres or decades
• Legend Run: 60 seconds, no hints, no excuses
• VS Mode: Challenge other players and compare your scores

HINTS AND CHALLENGES

Can't figure out a movie? Use hints to help you crack the puzzle. But in Legend Run, you're completely on your own. Just you, the clock, and your movie knowledge.

TRACK YOUR PROGRESS

• Points and correct-answer streaks
• XP and levels
• Achievements
• Personal bests
• Global leaderboards

FOR MOVIE FANS AND FUTURE MOVIE EXPERTS

From iconic classics to modern favorites, the descriptions range from ridiculously obvious to frustratingly clever. Sometimes you'll know exactly which movie it is but still can't remember its name.

Whether you're a casual movie watcher or a walking movie encyclopedia, there's always another film to guess.

Play in English or German. No traditional account registration required.
