Word play

SALDO

Two demo applications based on SALDO's web services, developed by Thomas Hallgren at CLT.

Which word should go?

A game inspired by Lattjo lajban-lådan in the Swedish children's program Fem myror är fler än fem elefanter.

Four out of five words are semantically close, and the goal of the game is to select the word not semantically close to the other words.

 

Ghost game

Ghost game is a game where all players, in turn, adds a letter to a growing word fragment, where the fragment should be the beginning of a word. The player that completes a word has lost.

All components for playing Ghost game against a computer player using SALDO's lexicon are available in the application below, but it is not yet a complete game.
