Four small games, every day
Dead Famous is four little history games: Face Value (guess a face from a torn photo), Lifeline (guess a figure from where they were born and died), Relic (guess an artefact from a torn photo) and Thread (a Connections-style grouping game). A new set opens at midnight — the same games for everyone, no matter when you show up.
There's no build-up, no account, no ads, and nothing to buy. It's designed to take a few minutes, not an evening.
Who makes it
Dead Famous is written and maintained by one person, working sessions with an AI coding assistant. Facts, images and puzzle design are checked by hand before anything is scheduled — see Sources for the image credits and Corrections for the record of fixes.
Why it exists
Most daily puzzle games ask for five minutes once a day and reward showing up, not grinding. Dead Famous tries to do that for history: a genuinely interesting fact or image every time, not padding.
