Support & FAQ
Welcome to Action! Support — How can we help?
Getting Started
What is Action! The Movie Game?
Action! is a movie connection game — connect two actors through shared film appearances in as few hops as possible. One hop = one movie + one actor. The fewer hops, the better your score.

Download the app and sign in with your email address. Your account is created automatically on first sign-in.
Is Action! free to play?
Yes — Sign up for a free account and receive 10 tickets to start, and you earn 1 free ticket every day by completing the Daily Challenge. Additional tickets can be purchased via in-app purchase.
Tickets
What are tickets?
Tickets are the in-app currency used to play games. Most game modes cost 1 ticket per player.

Gameplay
What is a hop?
One hop = one movie + one connecting actor. Example: Tom Hanks → Cast Away → Helen Hunt. That's one hop.
What are Cue Cards?
Cue Cards are hints that help you find a connection. The temperature indicator (🥶🌡️🥵🔥🎯) shows how close your current pick is to the goal actor.
What is the Daily Challenge?
Every day a new puzzle is available to all players. Yesterday's goal actor becomes today's start actor, creating a continuous chain. Complete it to earn a free ticket and maintain your streak.
What are Hollywood Career themes?
Themes are visual styles that unlock based on your daily streak. The longer your streak, the more exclusive the theme you unlock — from Extra all the way to Oscar Night.
Party Mode
How does Party Mode work?
Party Mode is designed for groups. One device acts as the host screen (ideal on a TV or laptop), and each player joins on their own phone. The host selects a game mode and controls the pace of the game.
Do all players need tickets for Party Mode?
Yes — each player is charged 1 ticket when the game begins.

- Battle Royale — every player for themselves
- Speed Run — fastest player wins
