You developped a realy nice backstory for it. And playing it was fun. gets your fingers moving real fast. very innovative game.

I like the backstory a lot. I can definitely see this being a multiplayer 'Family Feud' style game :)

Nice opening and a clever main mechanic.

Interesting to say the least :) Good job!

What a cool idea! Hint: Typing in the names of countries is a good strat ; )

I loved the intro animation.

Interesting premise. It probably makes sense, as the most important topics are related to so many other things, and the more important topics generally just have longer Wikipedia articles. I wondered how you calculated the topic scores - at one point, I thought it was how common the word is in some dataset. But your calculation makes much more sense.

Very innovative.

Got a score of 2250. It was pretty rough thinking of stuff to keep :) I really liked the intro animations, using a physically accurate background story.

How did you decide on how many points each topic gets?

I would have liked to see how the game works. But it didn't load, event after waiting 5 minutes. :(

Cool game and lovely premise. I really felt the lack of sounds there which I think could bring the game to new heights. The points for the topics were interesting; I can only imagine how you could have accounted for anything and everything under the sun. I think a funny epilogue depending on your topics could be in order. Anyway, this is quite the interesting entry!

I really had to think hardly. good job.

The concept is sooooo good I love it ! Nice job on the stylised graphics. I think the game could be improved by giving the user better feedback when the topic is not accepted - the first time i thought the interface had a bug.

A very unique take on the theme and the mechanics. It's got good replay value with the more topics I think of after I run out of time.
