About & How to Play

President or Actor is an independent portrait-guessing trivia game. Can you tell someone who actually served as U.S. president from an actor who portrayed a president?

How to play

Each round has ten portraits: five drawn from the president collection and five from the actor collection, in random order. Choose President or Actor, then read the answer and short explanation. No person repeats within a round.

Some people, such as Ronald Reagan, were both professional actors and actual U.S. presidents. For people who were both professional actors and U.S. presidents, either answer counts as correct.
