Counterspell
A downloadable game
Counterspell is a word puzzle game where the goal is to leave the board with as few points on it as possible. I made it as part of the Spring Lisp Game Jam 2024.
This is a browser-based game, and it makes use of the window.location, so embedding it in an itch page doesn't really work. You can play it here:

Maybe this is a skill issue on my part, but I don’t know most of these words. I only know the ones I highlighted in yellow.
Fun game though - better than NYT Strands!
Thanks for playing! Ha, yeah, the word list is kind of funky. I've been running into a lot that I've never seen before, too. If I continue development I will definitely be looking for a more reasonable list! 😅
You could try using this list and cutting it to the top 50k words or so: https://gist.github.com/h3xx/1976236
