HAJMA
Guess the player — with your friends
There are plenty of “guess the player” games, but most are solo, level after level on a phone. In Hajma, guessing players is a match between two teams: a photo or career shows on screen, the ref reads, and the team that knows first takes the points. The “Who is he?” group alone has eight ways to guess — all in the browser game.
8 ways to guess the player in Hajma
From the photo
A clear photo: 200 points for a star, 600 for an unknown.
Example: A player in Argentina’s No. 10 shirt lifting the 2022 World Cup.
The blurred photo
The photo stays blurred the whole time — you go on build, shirt and hair.
Example: A tall figure in a sky-blue shirt with long blond hair.
The cropped strip
A thin strip of the photo showing only the eyes.
Example: Eyes, thick brows, light stubble — someone you know?
From his career
His clubs in order, with years.
Example: Sporting CP → Manchester United → Real Madrid → Juventus → Manchester United → Al Nassr: Cristiano Ronaldo.
The hints
The ref opens hints one by one, and each lowers the value: full, then 60%, 40%, 25% and 20%.
Example: French → started at Monaco → won the 2018 World Cup → the World Cup’s all-time top scorer: Kylian Mbappé.
The initials
His initials plus his nationality.
Example: L. M. — Argentine: Lionel Messi.
The shared teammate
Three players from three clubs — name the one player who played with all three.
Example: Three players at three different clubs: who is the only one who played alongside all of them?
History’s legends
A retired player’s career — 600 points for the ones only historians know.
Example: Santos → New York Cosmos: Pelé.
How points work
Each question is worth 200, 400 or 600 points — the higher the value, the harder or less famous the player. In the Hints category the value drops with every new hint, so a 600 question pays only 120 on the fifth:
| Hint | Share | Points |
|---|---|---|
| First | 100% | 600 |
| Second | 60% | 360 |
| Third | 40% | 240 |
| Fourth | 25% | 150 |
| Fifth | 20% | 120 |
Miss, and the rivals can steal the question for all the points — so stay sharp on their turn too.

In a match, each club comes with its years and loans are marked, so the dates help you place the player’s generation.
Tips for guessing players
- On careers, start from the oddest club: big clubs had hundreds of players, but an obscure first club narrows it fast.
- On blurred photos, read the shirt colors before the face — they give away the club or country.
- On hints, don’t wait: a right answer on the second hint pays three times the fifth.
- Practice on player pages such as Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and Cristiano Ronaldo — each shows his career by year.
