Show HN: Linkagram a Daily Word Game
linkagram.jasoncabot.me
I made this game years ago (originally for PocketPC) but have recently updated it for the web.
The goal is to find all the words on a 4x4 grid of letters. Shamelessly ripping off wordle with a new board each day…
The hardest part was actually getting a decent word list that made it not too challenging to find all the words. In the end I went with ~ 3000 of the most common English words. Unfortunately it does mean that you can enter real words that aren’t recognised, but I wanted to optimise for a fun challenge!
It’s all open source and running on Cloudflare workers with some interesting technical aspects (dynamic open graph description and image generated with WASM)
