What is Typecast?
Name three daily actors from redacted credits. Fifteen guesses. A dated daily from Smashcut Games. Name three actors from redacted filmography. Year, genre, and rating stay visible; titles are blanked. Fifteen guesses are shared across the three names. A miss costs a guess. Hint cards cost up to three. A correct name is free. Solve one without cards and the next pays 1.5×. Guesses left at the end add a bonus. The three actors pay 100, 250, and 500. One gambit is available, and you can pass an actor. A display name is optional. The site uses TMDB data and is not endorsed by TMDB. This is not Typecasted. It belongs to the wider family of DLE games: compact browser puzzles that give players a repeatable challenge and a reason to return the next day.

Why it is worth trying
Typecast works well as a daily habit because a round usually takes 8-15 min. The rules are understandable in one session, but better pattern recognition can still improve future attempts.
Players who enjoy movies, actors, daily will find the closest fit here. The shared daily format also makes it easy to compare results with friends without requiring a long multiplayer session.
