Any movie buffs out there will love this new Wordle variant.
A new browser-based game - called Framed - has just hit the web, and asks film nerds to guess the movie based on five or less still frames.
On Framed.wtf, the stills are updated daily with a new film to guess, and if you type in the wrong answer, another frame will pop up to help you choose, in the hopes of making it more obvious with each turn.
Much like the OG Wordle format, the site keeps ahold of your stats as you progress daily, with your max streak, current streak and how many times you’ve played and won.
While not much is known about Framed’s creator, on the site itself, the description says it's ‘a game for cinephiles and casula movie watchers alike’ and was indeed inspired by ‘Wordle, Heardle and all other spin-offs.’

The creator goes on to say: “Each day a new movie is picked from a kinda curated list compiled by me.”
If you’re a bit more of a music maniac, Heardle is the one for you.
Following the online word guessing game, Wordle, we’ve seen Quordle - which is basically the same but players have to solve four puzzles at the same time, Worldle - a geography-based alternative, and even Weezle - in which players try to guess Weezer lyrics in six tries.
Now, Heardle is here to offer a slightly broader music quiz than just Weezer lyrics, and the key difference is that this one uses audio clips as clues.
In the game, players have six attempts to correctly guess the song of the day using what they hear, rather than what they see.
The game, which you can play at Heardle.app, initially gives players a very short clip of a song and then invites them to guess what it is.
With each incorrect guess, the clip gets longer. If you don’t get it after six guesses, you lose, and the correct answer is revealed. If you’ve ever seen the TV show Name That Tune, then you’ve got a decent idea of the premise of this new online game.
