Wordament (80 words so far)

Post by Gillipig »

Wordament is word finding game popular on phones, xbox live and windows 8. The purpose of the game is to find as many words as you can within the randomly generated letters. The rules are quite simple, you can start from whatever letter you want, go in any direction you want, even diagonally, but you can't skip a letter. You can only use the same letter once per word and it has to be a real word. You can bend words but not create new endings that doesn't exist. And we only roll with english words here. Minimum word size, 3 letters.
Let me demonstrate how it works:

This is a word (starting from red):

S T R P
A U S E
N R D I
N Y I D


This is also a word:

S T R P
A U S E
N R D I
N Y I D


This is an acceptable bending of a word (starting from purple):

S T R P
A U S E
N R D I
N Y I D




Wordament identified 206 words for this letter combination, lets see if we can find them all :)!
If anything is unclear, just ask.

S T R P
A U S E
N R D I
N Y I D



Words found:

Pause and Stride are not possible to create without jumping over letters, which is not allowed.
Nurse however is a good word. And I will add "Nursed" to the list as well.

Edit: Purse and Putrid won't count either, perhaps you should read the rules or ask me what the rules are.

Seriously though, yeah I read too quickly. I just thought it was like the game "boggle".

Tip:

You may want to break them down in to categories of how many letter words they are. 3 letter words, 4 letter words etc
Also, you may want to alphaebetize our guesses. Just a suggestion. I am too good at these games, I make people quit when I play them on my iphone.

EDIT: Don't believe "prudier" is a word. I think you'd use "more prudish" in that case.

Alphabetic it is! This is a team game so your skill will come us all to gain hehe.
Prudier is no word though, and pruny is not a real word either, (although it's a common slang word.)

If you're unsure about a word, I've found Oxford's dictionary to be very good. Just type it in, if oxford doesn't recognize the word, then it's probably just a slang word.

One thing we can do is to anoint the person who finds the longest word, the winner of that round.
As of now, MoB deadly's "Sturdier" is the word to beat. It has eight letters.

Sud is no word and Tardies is no word, but Tardis is, so I changed it to that. "Residuary" is now the longest word found, at nine letters.
