The premise is straightforward. Players are challenged to identify a specific footballer each day, aiming for the correct answer with minimal attempts. Every incorrect guess provides an additional hint. High performance is measured by the scarcity of clues required; three guesses is a solid result, while reaching the answer in four or five is considered elite. These daily challenges are curated by Flora Snelson of BBC Sport.
Participants are encouraged to engage regularly and check back for new rounds.
