I managed to drag one of the letters offscreen and couldn't get it back. A tutorial would have helped me understand what I needed to do and the daily puzzle button didn't do anything. The artwork for the game is nice and the added sound adds to the experience.
I'll have to debug the rat's AI and take a look at that issue. I imagine it's something to do with the anagram not being properly set up after the first round. The screams are totally random but we do plan on introducing a new system with a more consistently varied play rate... it's currently way too excessive.
Let me know if you have a game you need feedback on too!
The game feels really smooth to play, the screams and rats were a nice addition, but unfortunately the screams just kind of felt a bit awkward, I'm not sure if spreading them out and having other affects would have a better impact, like dripping noises etc, get the player feeling like their alone and somewhere abandoned. The words kept repeating themselves too much also, it might be worth adding in a check to see what the last word was to ensure its not picked again immediately. There also didn't feel like any real impact to getting the answer wrong or correct, the fingers just seemed to disappear if the clock ended. All things considered feels like it's nearly there with some minor polish work i think it will be a great game.

The game is very scary for sure, that scream kept going for like a good minute.
The rats only showed up for the 1st word and after that I never saw them again.
Big sad for not having swear words anymore :(
I like the game, interesting take on word games, but after a couple games there is not much content left :(
Keep up the good work guys!
Thanks for the feedback,

Yes, I agree, the screams are just a little bit excessive!
We have a fix for the issue with anagrams repeating themselves too!
Thanks for the feedback!
