How does Card Detective work?
Each day, a mystery card is selected from our database of 5,700+ sports cards. You start with one clue (the sport) and try to guess the player. Each wrong guess reveals the next clue. You have 6 clues total: sport, era/decade, rookie status, value tier, exact year, and card set. Try to solve it with as few clues as possible.
Is it the same card for everyone?
Yes! The daily mystery card is the same for all players. The card is selected using a deterministic algorithm based on the date, so everyone gets the same challenge. Compare your results with friends to see who needed fewer clues.
When does the card reset?
A new mystery card is available every day at midnight in your local timezone. Your progress and guesses are saved locally, so you can close the page and come back to finish later the same day.
What if I cannot figure it out?
After 6 wrong guesses, all clues are revealed and the answer is shown. The game tracks your win rate and distribution of how many clues you typically need. Even losses help you learn about cards in the database for future games.
