Four little games
Estimate a film’s box office, build a fruit tower, solve a three-guess fact and fill a bowl. Simple controls, colourful pixel objects, and a new way to see your answer.
How to play
- Guess a number: move the slider, drag the picture or type an exact value. Submit to see your tinted guess over the actual answer.
- Build a tower: name different fruits. The first accepted name starts a ten-second fuse; each new accepted name refills it.
- Solve a fact: you have three guesses. Spelling suggestions need confirmation. Empty, repeated and unconfirmed answers cost no life.
- Fill a bowl: name fruits until a supported pile stays above the brim. The last pieces get time to settle.
Enter submits. On a result, Enter or Space continues. Games contains sound, Metric/US measurements and site information. When analytics is available, its privacy settings are there too. Phones use their normal keyboard.
Your four, added up
Each game contributes up to 1,000 points. Number guesses use closeness; trivia awards 1,000, 750 or 500 for a correct first, second or third guess. Eighteen different fruits earns the tower’s 1,000 points. Filling the bowl earns 1,000; an unfinished bowl earns up to 900 from occupied cutout area. These are game design targets, not population percentiles.
Facts and their limits
The Batman question means the 2022 film’s worldwide theatrical revenue, not profit. Fruit shapes use representative dimensions on a shared scale; varieties and individual fruit differ. They are flat, stylised cutouts, not physical fruit volumes. The fruit collection is curated, so a real answer can still be missing.
Each game’s About panel gives its assumptions, source links and relevant size reference. This version uses a fixed set of four existing questions; it does not generate new daily facts.
