FAQ
How does Profiled work?
Every day there's one famous person to guess. You start with 10,000 points and the hardest clue. Each extra clue costs points (400, then 700, 1,000, 1,300 and 1,600), and each wrong guess costs 30% of what you have left. You get three guesses. Fewer clues and fewer misses means a bigger score.
When does the new card come out?
At midnight where you are. Everyone gets the same person on the same date, so you can compare scores with friends anywhere.
Who gets picked?
Celebrities from music, film, TV, sports, the internet and business. Some are easy and some take a few clues. The clues go from obscure to a giveaway, so everyone has a fair shot by the last one.
Why can't I type any name I want?
You pick from the list as you type, so a typo never costs you a guess. Nicknames work too, like "The Rock" or "CR7". The list includes plenty of famous people who are never the answer, so it won't give anything away. If someone you think should be there is missing, email me (see below).
Can I play days I missed?
Yes, kinda. You can play any day you missed from the Archive, but those games are just for fun. They don't count toward your points, streak, stats or group leaderboards. Days you've completed get stamped, and you can tap one to look back at your result.
Do I need an account?
No, you can play as a guest. Sign in with Google to keep your games and streak on all your devices and to join groups.
How do groups work?
Create a group and send your friends the link or code. They send a request, and the group's owner approves who gets in. Each group has a leaderboard for today and for all time, and holds up to 30 players.
The game won't load. What's wrong?
Some ad blockers and privacy extensions block the connection the game uses to save your moves. Try turning yours off for this site and reloading.
What do you do with my data?
Your games, name and groups are saved so the game can work. Analytics only run if you accept cookies, and nothing is ever sold.
Is Profiled made by a team?
No, just me.
How can I reach you?
