I created a new website, inspired by the popular game Wordle, that lets you guess an album by revealing a grid of 16 tiles 1 by 1 until you guess the correct album! There's a daily mode and also endless that is all the albums that have happened in the past daily albums.

Please let me know your thoughts :)

I like it! The only thing I would suggest is maybe removing the titles from the album covers. “Bookends” and “Aja” both showed me the title under the very first tile.

Yeah I've been told that from a few people, something that's bugged me for a bit. I wasn't sure of the best way to achieve this though? It's pulling from Spotify API atm so either I run some kind of ML text detection then blur it/cover it up and store in the database, or do it manually

Yeah that’s a tough one. Would require a lot of work to do them manually. On the other hand, it didn’t bother me too much, and after playing about a dozen rounds it only happened twice, so every one in six is just a free win.

Yeah the free win thing is good I think, for people that don't really know album covers
