The Challenge

We wanted to create a game that would test people's movie knowledge in a unique and engaging way. The challenge was to design a game that was:

  • Easy to understand but challenging to master
  • Social and shareable with friends
  • Accessible across all devices
  • Continuously engaging with new content

The Solution

Frame6 was born from the idea that movies have iconic moments that can be recognized from just a few frames. We created a game that presents players with 6 carefully curated frames from popular movies, challenging them to identify the film.

The game features multiple modes: single-player challenges for personal enjoyment, multiplayer modes for competing with friends, and a global leaderboard to see how you stack up against players worldwide.
