About Us

Welcome to Anubis Knows: Footballers

Anubis Knows: Footballers is a free, browser-based guessing game inspired by the classic "20 questions" format. Think of any footballer — a current Premier League star, a World Cup legend, or a club icon from decades past — and our mascot, Anubis, will try to read your mind through a series of yes-or-no questions.

Our Story

We built this game because we love football and we love clever, simple web experiences. After playing similar guessing games for years, we wanted to create our own version with a unique twist: an ancient Egyptian theme, a hand-illustrated mascot, and a question-and-answer engine built entirely from scratch.

Unlike many guessing games that rely on expensive AI services running in the background, Anubis Knows: Footballers uses a custom-built logic engine that runs entirely in your browser. This means the game loads instantly, works without an internet connection to any third-party AI service, and will never ask you to log in or hand over personal information just to play.

What Makes Us Different

• No accounts required. Just open the site and start playing.
• No invasive tracking. We don't need to know who you are to guess who you're thinking of.
• A growing database. We started with over 200 footballers spanning multiple eras, leagues, and continents, and we're continuously adding more players based on player feedback.
• Built for football fans, by football fans. Every question in our engine was chosen and tested specifically to make the guessing experience feel sharp, fast, and genuinely surprising.

Our Mission

We want Anubis Knows: Footballers to be the quickest, most enjoyable few minutes of your day — whether you're testing if our jackal-headed oracle can guess your favorite childhood idol or trying to stump him with an obscure name from a league you think nobody else follows.

We're a small, independent team continuously improving the game based on what players tell us. If you have feedback, suggestions for players to add, or just want to say hello, we'd genuinely love to hear from you — see our Contact page for how to reach us.

Thank you for playing, and good luck stumping the jackal god.
