    I had fun playing. It took me 3:14 seconds to play, which, I think, is great!

    I will note that I was a little confused at first since I must have read the rules too quickly. For some reason I was thinking that you only needed to include two of the starter letters.

    Anyway, am I correct in saying that each word must contain all of the letters in the shorter word directly above it? I might be misunderstanding, but isn't that essentially the same thing as what you currently have: "each word should ... contain both the starter letters and the letters of the shorter word"

      3:14, awesome time!

      Yes, that is exactly right, and a nice way of putting it! I think the only reason we hesitated to state it that way is that the first row (the starter letters) is not a "word", but maybe that's ok!

        Ah, I see your point, maybe something like "each word must contain all of the letters in the row directly above it"

    I love this game! It strikes me as conceptually unique amidst an expanding universe of word games, and the programming and design are simple but well-executed. Nice job!

    I would change the hints based on which word/line is selected, otherwise very neat.
