Unspool is a movie memory game that challenges players to build connections between actors and films from memory. Each round begins with an actor, such as Brad Pitt, and players name a film that actor appeared in, then another actor from that film, continuing the chain until time runs out. Every correct answer creates a link, with no suggestions or multiple-choice prompts: players must type the names they can recall.

The game turns each chain into a collection, awarding a card for every actor and a frame for every film. Actors connected through more films earn shinier cards, giving players a visual record of their progress. Unspool also supports friendly competition: players can challenge friends with the same starting point and clock, then compare how many links they found.

The product is offered free on iPhone, with beta invitations distributed by email. Unspool invites prospective players to join its list for an invitation. Its film and cast information comes from TMDB; the product is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
