Guessing Game

Walk-of-Fame

This is a fun guessing game that the user gets to solve. To find out which famous actor is on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

  • For this project, I used web scraping techniques to first grab the top 100 most popular actors.

  • From those 100 actors, I wanted to know which ones had a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

  • Which sparked the idea of making a guessing game from that.

  • I created a program that would randomly pick one of those actors, and the user would have to guess the actor.

  • I then used web scraping to get each one of those actors a created list of hints that the computer would give out if the guess was wrong.

  • I added a life system and removed clues that were just not helpful or too helpful.

  • Finally, when the actor was guessed correctly or you ran out of lives the program would end.

Below is the code written in Python:
