I love this game. The challenge is to be able to look at random 2-3 letter phrases and put them together as words. The words aren't divided by syllable or anything predictable. On the iOS app at least, you can download a month+ of free puzzles. I didn't know it was also online.

Man, playing the French one just made me feel bad about myself. I finally just started stringing letters together in ways that looked vaguely French and met the length requirements.

The interface kind of threw me off. I make the word and have to press a button that says "guess"? I know what the word is, no guessing about it.

Being asked to guess beats being ordered to submit.

There's a French one? I was feeling super-competent for a few minutes there. Thanks, solotoro.

I'm also glad that the on-line version is just one-a-day, because compulsiveness.

The app is one of my favorite ways of coping with boring meetings or training sessions.

This has been my favorite game on my phone for some time. I had no idea there was a French version. Thank you!

Reminds me of the connecting board on Only Connect.

Wish it was a little tougher.
