Feels pretty random. Maybe there's some strategy, it's not readily apparent. An awful lot of clicking next, might be nice to let it just play the AI turns on timers. Nice complete implementation, haven't seen many other turn-taking games.

There are some very interesting decisions to be made in this one: Should I place a letter 2 a part from the current one, or do I reroll hoping to get a closer one? It's hard to say sometimes. I managed to eliminate one player and then fought for a long time with the two others and ended up eliminated in the end. I think it might be easier to eliminate others (and speed up the game) if the letter limit was less than 14. Also I noticed that there's some text missing at the bottom of the rules page (the text is cut off at "they will need to"), at least on my screen, that's just a minor nitpick though.

Good job on the game :).

Very nice entry

This was a really neat idea, with some interesting strategy. The only unfortunate part is, at least when I played, it seems to drag on once there's only two players left. Not sure if any tweak could be made to address that, or if a tweak is even necessary - it may be fine as it is. Regardless, really neat idea!

Played this for a while, I have to say I might be addicted! This game is really well designed, the only thing I would tweak is the visuals. I would add a glow around letters I can play so that I don't need to search for them. I also think the buttons should have a nicer style so that it fits better with the aesthetic. Other than that, great game!
