Show HN: Reword, a Daily Anagram Game (amolkapoor.com)
3 points by theahura 7 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
The best part about coding agents is I get to indulge in making games again. They are so good at basic html / js games that I'm surprised we don't see another flash-game-like renaissance

Reword was originally built as a way for me to learn to beat my friends in the game Anagrams (itself a variant of Bananagrams). The goal is simple -- given a root word and a few additional letters, try and find a workable anagram.

Some elements are inspired heavily from wordle, including the once-per-day randomization and the share emoji.

Would love feedback!

Nice job. It kind of reminds me a bit of Scrabble stems, where there are certain high‑probability ones to bingo using additional letters, e.g. RETAIN you can add an S → RETINAS, add a D → TRAINED, etc.

(FYI: this was moved to http://rewordgame.xyz/)
