Who Made This?

Recognize famous paintings, melodies, and book titles by their creator. Three topic pools, a best streak for each

About PlayMemorize Who Made This?

Who Made This? is a creator-recognition game. It trains your recall of who painted a canvas, who composed a melody, and who wrote a book. The game shows you one work. You pick the correct painter, composer, or author from a list of four names.

Three topic pools. You pick one topic before the run, and each topic keeps its own best streak. The picker stages your choice, and the Generate new game button starts a run on it. Art shows the whole canvas, with no title. Music plays a short melody on the shared piano. Literature shows the title of the book as text.

Streak format. Each round tests one work and offers four names. A wrong answer ends the streak. No work repeats until its topic pool is empty. One full cycle therefore shows you every work in that topic.

Cross-cultural scope. The painters run from Turner and Hokusai to Rothko and Albers. The composers run from Pachelbel and Bach to Chopin and Satie. The authors run from Shakespeare and Cervantes to Kafka and García Márquez. You read every creator name and work title in your own language where a translation exists.

Part of the PlayMemorize family of brain-training games. Runs entirely in your browser, works offline as a Progressive Web App.

FAQ

  • What is Who Made This?

    A creator-recognition streak game. The screen shows a painting, plays a melody, or shows the title of a book, and you pick the correct painter, composer, or author from a list of four names. One wrong answer ends the streak.
  • Which topics are available?

    Three: Art (17 paintings by 12 painters), Music (10 melodies by 8 composers), and Literature (21 books by 16 authors). You pick one topic from the picker above the board. The picker stages your choice, so press Generate new game to start a run on it. A run stays on that topic, and each topic keeps its own best streak.
  • How does difficulty scale?

    It does not. Every round offers four names, whatever your streak, and the game draws each work at random from the topic pool without ranking it by fame. The three wrong names are drawn at random too, so they are not matched to the period or style of the work on screen. What changes the challenge is the topic you pick.
  • Are the works available in my language?

    Subject names and titles are localised across all 25 PlayMemorize languages wherever translations exist. The game UI is fully translated too.
  • How does my progress save?

    Your best streak is stored locally in your browser. Sign in to sync it across devices.
