Windows 8 App To Recognize Movie From Its Frame: Guess Movie

Guess Movie is a free app for Windows 8 and 8.1 in which you have to guess the movie presented to you on your screen by means of the frame shown on your screen. The frame is a screenshot of any scene inside the movie, and by looking at that, you have to select the correct name of the movie from the options displayed at the bottom of the screen. The game is designed in the form of a quiz, and has neat overall graphics. The game is pretty lightweight and it manages to do so by fetching the frames of the movie from online sources, thereby allowing to keep the size of the app to a minimum. The game also allows you to use lifelines like 50:50 etc.

Main features of Guess Movie for Windows 8 and 8.1:

When you install and run the game on your device, you will be presented with a screen where you will be able to see a big red Action button at the center.

Just click on that Action! button and the game should automatically start. Depending on your internet speed, the app will take some time to fetch the frame of the movie for your questions as it does so through online sources. Once that’s presented on your screen, you will be shown a question corresponding to the frame of the movie as can be seen in the screenshot below.

You can also see a purple line timer slowly ticking away at the bottom of the screen. The movie names displayed on your screen are shown with the corresponding year of release so that might give a brief idea about the movie and which one it could be. The lifelines can be seen at the top right, all clubbed together. For instance, if you click on the 50:50 button, two incorrect options will disappear from the screen. This can be seen in action below.

As you can see above, we are now left with only two options out of which one of them is the correct one. When you click on a correct option, you are awarded points at the top of the screen, and you can keep track of your score in this way.
