We show a Beyoncé cover. You choose the album. Scan for signals: minimal type on deep black says “visual album”; a clean number title hints the live-band era; a persona-themed cycle leans bold styling and high contrast.
Use two checks per card. First, match color and texture. Second, match the era vibe in your head. If both align, tap it. If one feels off, pass.
Stay consistent. Read image → test cues → pick. Quick, simple steps beat long debates, especially across many rounds.
