This game is amazingly good! It does feel a bit random at times because of the algorithm, so a bit of patience and trial and error are needed to fully enjoy this game. Overall great concept and creative mechanic which goes to show how all you need is to correctly execute a great idea.
Nice one. I’ve toyed around with this kind of things before. Quite a few words landed at 0,0, which feels a bit frustrating (usually, cause it’s out of vocabulary or something). Still neat toy though
I'm on Mac and got an error, not sure if it is related. I'll try a PC later.
Thanks for the feedback! I've heard a similar comment from friends. Initially, I considered a square-shaped map, but realized it limited replayability to just 4 words (the vertices). That's why I went with the circle. Adding a terrain background with island names is something I'm considering to improve clarity. Thanks for playing!
