The museum is open. Do you know who's inside? Whoseum is a daily word puzzle built around the most fascinating people who ever lived. Every day a new famous figure steps into the Grand Hall — and it's your job to name them. Every answer is a five-letter surname, from history's giants to today's icons. Picasso or Pollock? Newton or Curie? Caesar or Cleopatra? Guess letter by letter, and with each try the tiles flip and color-code your letters, closing you in on the name. But here's the twist: you're never guessing blind. A clue greets you before your first move, and a sharper one is revealed after every miss — general at first, then closer and closer to the answer. A silhouette hints at who's waiting behind the tiles. And win or lose, a museum placard reveals the full name, a short story of their life, and a link to learn more. HOW IT WORKS • Name the famous five-letter surname in six guesses • Tiles flip and color-code every letter you try • Six clues per puzzle, revealed one at a time — the more you miss, the more you learn • Solve the daily and your streak lives on. Miss it, and the museum quietly closes its doors until tomorrow. EXPLORE THE HALLS Beyond the daily Grand Hall, Whoseum houses eight permanent collections you can wander any time — no timer, no daily limit: • Artists & Composers • Athletes • Inventors • Movies & TV Stars • Rulers & Statesmen • Scientists • Social Media Stars • Writers Hundreds of legendary figures to discover at your own pace — each hall tracks its own progress and its own win streak, so there's always another name waiting to be uncovered. FEATURES • A brand-new daily puzzle — a fresh face in the Grand Hall every morning • Eight permanent halls spanning art, sport, science, politics, literature, entertainment, invention and the internet age • Progressive clues that reveal a little more with every guess • Streak tracking for the daily Grand Hall and every hall • Game Center leaderboards and achievements — climb the ranks and earn a badge for every hall you complete • Remove Ads with a one-time purchase • Sound, haptics, and larger-text options to play your way • No account required — just open and play History never gets old. Neither does a good puzzle. Open the doors. Name the legend.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Whoseum at Free against History Game Pro's $3.99. Whoseum also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 18 months) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). History Game Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On rating and review sentiment there is nothing between them.
