Hidden Links : Famous people

What links Marie Curie and Isaac Newton? Berthe Morisot and Claude Monet? Group 24 famous people by their work and discover six cultural families.

How to play Hidden Links

Click three pictures on Easy, four on other levels. The game checks your group automatically when all pictures are selected. Click a card again to deselect it.

A correct group joins together with an explanation. A wrong selection is marked, then cleared so you can try again. Picture names stay visible at every level. Expert does not flag nearly correct groups.

Discovery mode allows unlimited mistakes, with no timer or account required.
