Pedantle: new online word game!

1000 replies

Plexie · 19/05/2022 22:12

Anyone found this yet? It started today as an offshoot of Cemantle.

cemantle.herokuapp.com/pedantle

It's like Redactle in that you have to guess the words of (part) of a Wiki entry, but unlike Redactle (which displays the whole text once you have guessed the title) Pedantle lets you carry on guessing individual words after you've guessed the title, so you can 'play' for longer. Then you can click the reveal text button to see the whole entry.

It's on US time (west coast) and a new game starts at either 7pm or 8pm BST.

Yep I feel that @LadyOfTheCanyon

ErrolTheDragon · 07/06/2022 10:40

There was a clue or two (if you'd filled in the relevant words first!) which would limit the options - I didnt twig as soon as I should have.

Sunbird24 · 07/06/2022 14:50

Yeah, I got one of the hyphenated words which led me to a hint and it was kind of a limited choice from there!

One person had found it by 20.01!

Sunbird24 · 07/06/2022 20:17

That person can’t be putting in all the filler words first! Wonder what their tactic is?

InMySpareTime · 07/06/2022 20:22

I don't even know how you'd cheat that fast.

I did terribly

Happy with that. But how on earth did someone get it by 20:01? Maybe it was the setter?

Maybe it'd be quicker to go straight for some 'content' words.
For some reason I play this game quite differently to either cemantle or redactle.I don't think there's enough typographical clues to do it like the latter though.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 07/06/2022 23:30

Went in the wrong direction for a while, but still had to Google as my knowledge of this area is shaky.

I took a different approach today and got the context immediately so it was just a bit of guessing and working out then. Usually I like to take ages and put the little everyday words in first.
