Adding Spectrle a free daily puzzle where you guess a movie from its color spectrum.

The whole film gets sampled, compressed, and rendered as a radial gradient a kind of color fingerprint of the entire runtime. You get five guesses, and each miss adds a text clue and redraws the spectrum from fewer, wider frames, so it starts as pure abstract color and gradually resolves into recognizable stills.

Free, no login, no subscription, new puzzle daily, and there's a full archive of past days.

A couple of notes on how I filed it:

  • Category: Movies/TV, alongside Framed and CineNerdle. There's also a daily video game puzzle (same mechanic, sampled from a full playthrough) that would fit Video Games, but the list looks like it keeps one entry per game, so I mentioned it in the description rather than adding a second entry. Happy to split it if you'd prefer.
  • No id field, per the contributing instructions.

Thanks for maintaining this list!

Filed under Movies/TV alongside Framed and CineNerdle. It also has a
daily video game puzzle, but the list keeps one entry per game, so the
Video Games mode is mentioned in the description instead.
