alt Hacker NewsShow HN: Zanagrams
Comments
Pretty fun, took me about 10 minutes but found 24 words 10 of them bonus. This was #5 for future viewers.
the score should include how many bonus words you found (out of how many there were in total) and instead of time it should count how many tries you made because technically you could brute force this and try all combinations. counting each try would eliminate that (for anyone trying to get a high score)
Cool game. Snus isn't in the word list btw
Found six bonus words.
I like that it also handles words that aren't planned in. You get a nice "bonus word" popout.
pretty cool. how are you deciding or generating puzzles ?
Fun! I like how the puzzle naturally gets easier as you solve it. How do you decide which words to include?
Interesting game! Is this an original idea? Is there plan to add "endless" number of zanagrams?
There are a couple of games like this on Android I play:

They're both on FDroid

It’s basically Ribbit from Puzzmo, which is fine because reimplementations let you experiment with different gameplay.
