What is First Lines?
First Lines is a classic literature quiz game where players identify famous novels from their opening lines. It works as a Gutenberg book quiz demo for readers, students, and anyone who likes literary trivia.
Key features of First Lines
Each round presents a recognizable first line, answer choices, scoring feedback, and a simple game loop that keeps the quiz moving. The experience is focused on recall, discovery, and replayable questions from well-known public-domain novels.
How First Lines was built
