Glad that there is no timelimit, makes the game pretty relaxing.

First attempt took me 12 minutes.\n\nYou *might* want to consider a blacklist\/whitelist on the word generation? Not a big deal, but having the game serve up a curse word in the first setup does colour its impression a little. Seems like you know the direction placement is a little finicky, but it's perfectly playable.\n\nOverall pretty fun, and it's nice to have options to tweak for multiple plays.","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":1012681,"author_name":"Greytyphoon","author_uid":"greytyphoon","epoch":1696555775,"text":"@oadt and @ace17, thank you so much, I'm glad you had fun!\n\n@tjm, uh, woops?

Super fun little game. I always found it kind of weird when I could create words via adjacency that weren't words.
