Cool game!

Nice game. Did you register a domain name for it?

@olivieryc I did indeed! The game isn't super embeddable, so I wanted to make sure it didn't feel like I was linking to a sketchy site :p

I really dig this one! Extremely easy to pick-up and play. I went poking around in the source code to see how you generate each batch of letters - I appreciate that you always throw in a few uncommon ones just to make each group a little trickier

这是个啥？

:(

I am not good in English.

It's a very rewarding game, but I don't get a single point. :(

Very fun! It wasn't initially obvious that you can re-use letters (a lot of these word games only let you use each letter once), and it would be nice to note in the instructions that longer words buy more time, but otherwise a very cool word game!

@lancival Agreed! That's been a common source of feedback. Thanks for playing!


Nice game, where did you get the work database from? it seems to allow some "non-words", but very cool.

Would be good to have access to some more vowels and less constants like x and z.

Great submission :smile:

solid game. as a non-native-english speaker I am not a high ranking player. But I manage to get 50 seconds at one time .....

@haydads right now it's using the one that ships with macos, /usr/share/dict/words

Very creative concept! You should really add a leaderboard. That would really boost the competitiveness.

The idea is good but due to randomness, it's rare to get decent words. There's only one time I could use all 5 letters.
Hmmm.... I think previous Ludum Dare theme fits this game.

im so bad at this type of games but i think you did an great job, also with implementing the theme :) some music would be nice but over all, great concept and neat design :) well done


Pretty fun, I'm a big fan of word games. The interface is very visually clean-looking! It's so satisfying to manage to work in the J or other weird letter, and I appreciate that the game congratulates you for getting long(er) words. :slight_smile: I think it might be nice if it showed you how much extra time you got for each word -- I wasn't sure if longer words gave more time or if I should just be spamming as many words as i could, haha.

This game was surprisingly addictive! Admittedly, I'm not the best at word games, but this game made me keep wanting to replay it after I lost. I'm probably gonna play it a few more times after I finish this comment! I really liked that you made it possible to use repeated letters, I think that adds a lot of depth to the game. I'd be interested to see how the gameplay would change if there were six letters instead? Sometimes it felt like there weren't enough possible words in the 5 letters to meaningfully improve the time bank, but maybe I'm just not good enough :P Great work!

I am the worst player when it comes to these scrabble like games, but somehow it was still somehow funny for me! Only wished you could also click on the tiles to insert a word instead of using the keyboard

Oh man, I'm not good at all why that kind of game. I only made 23 points max :cry:
English isn't my first langage either so yeah, it wasn't easy at all lol.

I liked the idea and I wish there were more letters to work with because it get hard when you have uncommon letters. Maybe an easy mode ?

Anyway, it was still fun ! I'll show this game to a friend, I'm sure he will enjoy more than I did !

Keep up the good work :smile:

A very cool entry, I'll probably go back right now to try to beat my high score of 70. (edits: 102. 130!) Simple but fun.

I'm happy I could give you your 20th review, you surely deserve to be rated!
