A Commuting Gamer's New Favorite: Cinematrix

For those with a commute of less than thirty minutes, finding engaging activities can be a challenge. There's the standard selection of games on the New York Times Games app like Wordle and the recent addition of Connections, but a new contender has joined the ranks as of February 26th. Allow me to introduce you to Cinematrix.

Discovering Cinematrix

From the entertainment news site, Vulture, a part of New York Magazine, comes Cinematrix, a delightful gem of film-focused trivia. After being introduced to the game by my partner, an avid reader of Vulture and fellow commuting gamer, it quickly became our new commuting pastime. From its announcement on Monday, it took only three days for us to become utterly hooked.

How to Play Cinematrix

The game utilizes a 3x3 grid of nine squares, with clues like actor names, release years, and box office stats adorning the sides. The objective is to find a movie that fits the two clues provided for each square. The game is a thrilling test of your film knowledge that manages to keep you on your toes.

The more obscure the movie, the higher the points you can score. However, be cautious as you only get nine guesses. One wrong guess and you won't be able to complete the grid. The game offers an exciting challenge and the opportunity for interesting conversations comparing answers with fellow players.

Connecting with Cinematrix

If you're familiar with Movie Grid, you might find Cinematrix similar. This is because it was created in partnership with the Movie Grid team. Despite this, Cinematrix stands out and is sure to attract new players. With new puzzles released every weekday at 5 a.m. ET, it's a great addition to your commuting routine. If you're seeking a new game or simply need a break from Connections, give Cinematrix a shot.
