How do you play? Name a movie. Now, name an actor in that movie. Then, name a different movie with that actor. Keep going until someone gets out. And, that’s it! However, let’s say someone (Charlie) gets stumped, then he can use a hint (1 per turn). If Charlie gets stuck again, he can challenge the player who came right before him (Rose). If Rose answers correctly, then Charlie is out. If Rose answers incorrectly, then she is out! In games with multiple players, you keep going until only one player remains. What are the rules? #1 You cannot repeat an actor or a movie. #2 Each player gets only one hint per game. #3 You can challenge as many times as you want. Many ways to play In this app, we provide multiple ways to play with your friends, family, or neighbors with uncanny abilities at recalling obscure films. Compete: Play others 1 vs 1 in turn based games. Play with 20, 30, 60 seconds or unlimited time. Pass N’ Play: In this multiplayer version, add your friend’s names and play! Bots: Challenge our movie bots to 1 vs 1 games. When you are ready for a challenge, try Daryl or Halle! Practice: See how far you can go by yourself stringing movies and actors together! Puzzle: Can you get from Tom Hanks to Angelina Jolie in 12 moves? Prove it! Practice: Brush up daily on your knowledge of actors, actresses, and movies. Popcorn is delicious… and useful Bags of popcorn are the currency of the game. Use popcorn to purchase hints or extra games. Everyone gets 1 free Pass N’ Play game per day (This includes all players and hints for each player). Additional plays cost 1 bag of popcorn. In Compete, everyone gets 3 active games at any given time. To launch more games, pay one bag of popcorn. Hints costs one bag of popcorn as well. What can we say, we love popcorn. An icon in the top right corner shows you how much popcorn you have left. Every player starts out with a large stash of popcorn. When you use it up, head to the concession stand to purchase more popcorn. Or purchase the Director’s Chair subscription for unlimited hints and games all month long. It’s super comfy and you’ll feel full of artistic vision. Things to remember - In order to use the app, you need to have a solid internet connection. This is IMPORTANT! - In order to play Compete, Pass N’ Play, or the Bots, you need to login for an account. - You can use your own given name or a username in the account section. This is how people will find you. Enter this after you sign up for an account. - In Compete, swipe left to delete active or past games. - When searching for actors / actresses, you can sometimes type a first or last name to find them more quickly. - Use Research to find your own signature “moves” with lesser known movies or actors.

This game is challenging and fun to play online with others. Highly recommend to any movie fan! **Developer response:** This means a great deal. Thanks so much! ### 5/5 — Literally had been looking for this app for years *2020-07-26* Don’t know why it’s so hard to find in search. Literally exactly what I was looking for ### 5/5 — Best Movie Game on the App store *2020-07-02* First of all cheers to the developers for making such an awesome game for movie enthusiasts. Totally loved the way the game goes on and would try to participate in all the upcoming tournaments..good work keep it up..from Moviemantis!!!! **Developer response:** Glad you are enjoying the tournaments. Thanks for review and please let us know if you have any feedback! ### 5/5 — Great Filmy Fun *2020-04-17* Stretch your movie trivia to its limits with this amusing challenge that gets tougher the further you get into it. Well worth a download! **Developer response:** Thanks so much! We appreciate great players like yourself! ### 1/5 — Houston...we got a problem. *2020-03-22* If you don’t want to spend time constantly going back and forth between Wikipedia and the app to get the exact spelling of an actor’s name, pass this game by, like a bad case of the Coronavirus. Jennifer Grey, Jennifer Gray? Come on. Someone didn’t think of that when in development? GYST. **Developer response:** Hi lpoohw - thank you for your well written critique! We recognize name spelling is tough for many (and the main challenge between playing this game on mobile vs live with friends). We have lost a few games trying to input Daniel Kaluuya! Luckily, like the gritty engineers of Apollo 13, we have a work around. You can use partial text searches: so if you don’t know how to spell Leonardo DiCaprio, you can put Leonardo Di or just Leonardo and most times the actor you need will arise. This works often with movies too. We find this especially helpful when you have 20 seconds on the clock in our tournament. Try “Jennifer Gr” and we think you like the results. Hope this helps - as always don’t hesitate to email us with any questions or concerns. Getting to the moon isn’t easy, but we believe together people can accomplish a lot! ### 5/5 — Trivia *2019-09-29* Best trivia game ever! ### 5/5 — So fun! *2019-09-27* Love playing in a group of friends or against the bots! ## Frequently asked questions about Movie Game ### How do you play Movie Game?
