Talk a legend into it

Every day, one famous figure from history gets a wonderfully absurd mission. You have six messages to change their mind.

1

Meet today's legend

A different historical icon each day — the same one for everyone — with one daft mission to accept.

2

Make your case

Type freely, in any language. A real AI answers in character. Flattery won't move them; arguments that fit who they truly were will.

3

Move the meter

Each message swings them between “No deal” and “Won over.” Settle any time, or play all six messages.

Your grade

SWon over

DNo deal

Tips

  • Know your legend. Appeal to their real values, ambitions and obsessions — not generic praise.
  • Fit their era. The anachronism is the fun, but frame it in terms they'd understand.
  • Be specific. A concrete, fitting reason beats a big vague compliment every time.
  • Stay civil. Rudeness gets you thrown out — and tanks the meter.
  • Fewer messages, higher grade. Win them over fast for a better score to share.
