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

Comments

OK I'm going to go ahead and say this is an absolutely phenomenal game. Great, original idea. I could see myself playing this with friends, and it could even be a successful board game, though we'd need a legend explaining the different things that can happen when a battle occurs (namely, if one of the attack words is not valid, the attack outright fails regardless of what's defending)

Needs a dictionary also.

For the online version (which is gorgeous) it really needs a multiplayer discovery mode.

I'm in room code PEEP if anyone fancies a game: https://truncate.town/#PEEP

edit: seems like the board editing in multiplayer mode doesn't work

There is a dictionary. Just click on the bottom right arrow and click on the dictionary.

Amazing, thanks for the feedback!
