Five Malayalam film actors a day, each one a single portrait opened from the top down. First only the hair; then the hairline, with the decade they started; then the eyes and one of their films; then most of the face and two more; and at last the whole photograph with the film everyone knows them from. The picture never changes — only how much of it you may see. One guess per step from the actor list: the less of the face you needed, the more it scores, and a wrong guess never puts you out, it just opens the next step.

How a round goes

1. A portrait appears with only its top showing: the hair, and nothing else.
2. Search the actor list and submit a name whenever you think you have it — one guess per step.
3. A wrong guess, or asking to reveal more, opens the portrait further down at a lower point tier — 500, 350, 250, 150, 80.
4. Each step brings words with it: the decade they were first on screen, then their films, the best-known last.
5. A wrong guess still tells you whether it started in the same decade, or ever shared a film with the answer.
6. Five faces make a day, and the whole office gets the same five. Practice draws any five and keeps nothing.
