Pedantle: new online word game!

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.

Ventured into pedantle for the first time yesterday - took me a while to get the hang of it! But I quite enjoyed it. I appreciated it being a shorter paragraph than redactle, even if it seems harder to work it out.

Took a lot of guesses as I worked out how to play so hopefully will get those down today.

InMySpareTime · 16/06/2022 08:48

@BIWI the main pitfall with Pedantle is that the boxes change size. At least you missed the truly obscure words in the early puzzles. Tocharian was a low point.

BIWI · 16/06/2022 09:04

Yes, the size of the boxes is a puzzle - much less clear than redactle.

Grin at Tocharian. I have no clue what this or means! Anyway, I got today's quite quickly now I've got more of an idea how to play it.

I like that it's doing conjugation now. I think it needs the base form of a verb - I hadn't read the announcement properly, had put in 'is' as one of my usual starter words as usual, then later 'be' and as well as adding more hits the all the existing "is" went green again.

There was a massive clue in the formatting- I was too dumb to get the significance though.
