Tips & Strategy

Getting to 100 takes strategy. Here are some tips to help you get there faster.

Think by Category

Divide your memory into categories — scientists, athletes, musicians, writers, actors, leaders, historical figures. Mentally "walk through" each category one at a time.

Use Full Names

Full names are more likely to match Wikidata entries. Instead of "Beyoncé", try "Beyoncé Knowles-Carter". Avoid single names like "Sarah".

Start Easy

Begin with the most obvious names you know. Modern celebrities, pop stars, and well-known historical figures are quick points that build momentum.

Bridge Between Fields

When one category dries up, switch to another. If you are stuck on scientists, jump to athletes. The game rewards breadth of knowledge.
