What MusicVidle is

MusicVidle is a daily music puzzle that swaps audio for pictures. Instead of hearing a clip, you see a single still frame taken from a music video and must work out which song it comes from. If your first guess is wrong, another frame from the same video is revealed, up to a maximum of six images. The goal is to identify the song title before your guesses run out. Each day features one new song, and after playing you can share stats such as your streak and guess distribution. It was created by Maik Zehrfeld of LangweileDich.net and draws inspiration from Wordle and Heardle.

How to play

Each day presents one song to identify, starting with a single still frame from its music video. Look over the image and enter a song title as your guess using the search to select it. If you are unsure, you can skip instead. Every wrong guess or skip reveals the next frame from the video, up to a maximum of six images in total, and you have up to six guesses to name the song. After each guess, feedback tells you whether at least one word of your answer is correct, which can help steer you toward the right title. You can zoom in on any image with your mouse or finger to examine details more closely, and you can re-watch previous images by clicking their numbers. The round ends when you name the song or run out of guesses.

Tips

1. Zoom in on each frame to catch small details like background objects, clothing, or on-screen text that might identify the artist or era.
2. Use the feedback about a correct word to refine your guess toward titles that share wording with your previous attempts.
3. Re-watch earlier frames by clicking their numbers to compare details across all the images revealed so far.
4. If a frame gives you nothing, skipping moves you closer to the next image, which may be far more recognizable.
