Not sure if this really qualifies as a thinky game, but it was definitely a fun one! It’s sad how often I made the same mistakes twice, guess I just have a very bad memory. Got 500 on my first play. Nicely done, happy birthday!

The prompt at the intro of the jam did include 'word games' as a qualifier. I'd squarely place this as a thinky word game, as it engages semantic memory, and linguistic understanding across multiple languages. For sure, it's not a conventional thinky game, but thinking under pressure is still thinking :P

Nicely done! Managed 840 on my first play, mostly by reasoning "I don't know that one, therefore probably chalk". :-D

I feel like with multiple runs it probably becomes more of a memory game?
