Guess the Gadget is live on GeekTechLive
Guess the Gadget is live. One shared puzzle per day, six curated answer choices, four turns, and a public leaderboard. That’s the whole format.
How it works
Each day everyone gets the same puzzle. You pick an answer, and if you’re wrong, the next clue unlocks. Get it in fewer turns and you rank higher. The leaderboard resets daily so there’s always a fresh round waiting.
It’s fast. You can play it in two minutes and come back tomorrow.
The sourcing piece
This is not just a trivia box dropped onto the page. Every puzzle goes through an editorial workflow before it ever gets scheduled.
That means matching the gadget to a reviewed primary Wikipedia source, adding corroborating references, and running a human approval step. When the answer reveals at the end, the game shows the attribution links so you can actually follow the trail yourself.
I cared about that part. A game where the answer just appears with no context felt like a miss.
Why I built it
GeekTechLive needed something interactive and daily. Practical tech, a little media history, something playful without being random. Guess the Gadget fits that.
It also gives the site a reason to come back tomorrow, which a static app listing page does not.
