Hello there Product Hunters and welcome to Toppled! A new daily word game.
I love a good word game. I've grown up watching Countdown here in the UK, I play Wordle, I love a good crossword, I'm generally a geek for any kind of word game.
So I decided to try and make my own, and the result is Toppled!
How to play:
All you have to do is create four valid five-letter words from the letters in the wall and you'll topple it!
Beware though! You may make 3 great words and be left with 5 letters that simply can't make a word. This would be a failed attempt at toppling the wall.
Fewer attempts and words = a higher score!
Every wall also contains four GOLDEN words (the audience chants: ooooh!) these are worth a whopping 100 points each. To help you find them, their starting letters are highlighted gold.
The gamble you have to make is... do you try for the golden word bonus and increase your word count? Or just play it safe with some regular words?
This is the first time I've built something like this so I'd love to see what people think. And if you're interested, here's my stats from today's game:
Toppled #14
💥 I just Toppled today's wall!
🎲 5 Tries
✏ 11 Words
👉 139 Points
🔥 8 Day Streak
Enjoy!
Nice game. Tried it and adding it to my morning word game routine.
Toppled #16
💥 I just Toppled today's wall!
🎲 3 Tries
✏ 8 Words
👉 94 Points
This seems like a great idea, and I love the daily nature of it! Gonna check it out Thomas, and congrats on the launch!
Don't be shy! Let's see some scores in the comments... Can you find one of the four golden words?
Fun little fact: the golden words are actually the four words the wall is built with. This guarantees that there's always at least one solution to the wall.
