Hi Product Hunt 👋
I built Bookguessr because I love literature and wanted to create something that actually tests your feel for writing — not just facts or trivia.
In Bookguessr, you’re shown real literary excerpts and have to guess who wrote them. In some modes, you face off against AI-generated fakes. It’s like GeoGuessr, but for books.
🎯 What’s new:
Campaign mode based on literary movements (e.g. Romanticism, Realism)
AI vs Author mode: stylistic intuition over pure knowledge
Free to play, and constantly growing
If you love books — or even if you write — I’d love your feedback, ideas, and bug reports!
Thanks for checking it out 📚
