Comment on Show HN: Truncate, a word-based strategy game

Comments

Clicking "Resign" brings up a dialog that asks: "Play again? / Resign / Continue playing". Now, obviously the answer to "Play again?" is yes — I don't want to stop playing entirely, I want to "Continue playing". But that's the wrong answer and dumps me back into the game I was trying to resign!

The dialog should say either "Really resign? / Resign / No, keep playing" or else "Resign and play again? / Yes / No, keep playing".

I, also, find the game pretty hard: the biggest difficulty is that you can't control the letters that come out, so even if you know a word that you'd like to make, you might have to spend 20 turns playing useless letters on the back field while hoping for an "S" or whatever.
