Fun!!!!!!!!!!!! My high score is 44! Would be cool to have word length bonuses or combos or something like that. (Don't know how they would work while still keeping the goal to be make 10 words as fast as possible)

Impressive highscore! I agree, feels like a 6-letter word deserves extra reward, will have to think about that

Surprisingly fun, if simple concept! Well done!

This game made me realize how bad I am at spelling XD. Great game!

Developer

Sorry to hear that lol cheers for playing!

What made this game a bit difficult was, that falling letters that touched the leash added to the word. However, it was fun to play. :) Feel free to also check out our jam game. :)

I hadn't noticed how bad I'm in word games haha, but had fun challenging myself! I know a lot of people who'd love to play this game. Excellent work!

Love the wizard. Would probably feel better to play if falling letters weren't added to your word when they hit the line you've drawn, but you could just as easily turn that into part of the challenge. Nice work!

Developer

Cheers! Yeah the idea was that you had to be quick to get the word, but could probably use some tweaking

Not very original, but done in a  new and refreshing way. Spent a bit too long playing it. Very good.

Developer

Thanks! Haha yep it's that sort of game ;)

solid word game, very cool!

Developer

Nice one, thanks!

I really like the idea. The controls need more work. Moving parts and dragging does not match well, there are some issues i.e. falling tiles keep adding to lines drawn. Simply clicking them as they fly by would improve usability. 

Could become a great learning tool for words with more work. Presentation of a wizardy setting could attract children to learn new words.

Thanks for the feedback, I like the educational idea, hadn't thought of that!
