Really clever take on the theme! Enjoyed my time with this one :)

Neat game! I felt like on some turns I wasn't able to play any compound words or rhymes, but it's a card game so it's understandable that sometimes you're gonna have a bad draw. Or maybe I'm just bad at making compound words :)

Yes, that was the first problem I ran into during development. I wanted to avoid dead hands so I worked with the stipulation that each word had to have at least 2 compounds, and the process of finding a big list of compound words and filtering it with that rule in mind was quite time consuming so I couldn't do much better within the time limit I'm afraid.  I'm gonna look into the probabilities regarding possible hands though, thank you for your feedback.

Interesting twist on the theme, well done!
