You heard right. This week I used an AI app creator called Bolt.new to make a game version of TIP, where you have to match 10 masterpieces to their made-up titles in under 90 seconds — and then try to beat your best time. It’s obviously still in the very early stages, but playable as a test. The issue is there are currently only 30 paintings loaded, so you can really only play it three times, unless you have no short-term memory, in which case it will provide hours of entertainment. But I plan to add more paintings if people seem to like it.

Here’s the link. Just click it and you’re in business! (NOTE: The games don’t start automatically, so just click “Start” at the top right to get going.)
