Loopy Letters

A word game with a small gameplay loop. Plays best on your phone.

It uses random words from the Wordnik word game list, as shared on their Github page, which has a lot of stuff on there I myself wouldn't really consider a word. Sorry about that.

Game Versions

  • Main Game: Available at the root path /
  • Birds Version: Available at /birds - find bird names with images!

Rules

  1. Use every letter on the donut to spell a word.
  2. Letters in the word must be adjacent to each other on the donut.
  3. You can go clockwise or counterclockwise.
  4. When you find a word. The next word to find appears.
  5. Go fast. Go slow. Enjoy.

This revisits the gameplay from a 2002 Observable notebook I made called "find a (big) word, rings".
