Play 6 Degrees of ConnectionA fresh puzzle is waiting for you.
6 Degrees of Connection is a daily puzzle where you connect a top actor to a bottom actor by alternating between films or TV shows and cast members. Each step adds one title and one actor from that title until both target actors are joined. The interface gives feedback when a connection is invalid and allows sharing completed chains.
You get up to six connections to complete the chain and each title and actor may be used only once. TV roles count for regular and recurring appearances but not for talk shows, reality TV, or cameos as themselves. The site displays a countdown for the next puzzle and prompts players to return for a new daily challenge.
