Pedantle: new online word game!

[Plexie]

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

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.

Is it right that the darker the grey, the closer the word is semantically? And that a grey word will only be replaced by another if you guess one that’s even closer?

I can’t decide if I love or hate this. It hurts my eyes but redactle has been a bit too easy recently, I like the ones I have to get into research mode for really.

1st to find it. Never managed that today. I had a lucky random guess which put me into knowing the area.

102 guesses. Had to google when I hit 101 when I had exhausted my knowledge of that subject. I hadn't heard of the answer.

Never heard of it again. At least redactle is often stuff that people have heard of... I got this through a process of elimination after narrowing down the general type of thing.

I meant to add above that I had to Google as well as haven't heard of it. Not sure how long I'm going to carry on with this if it's always impossible to do without googling.

I did exactly the same!

I found it but only with the use of Google maps - I hadn’t heard of the place before. Also was guessing lots of places in that region which it said it had never heard of which was frustrating.
