Very good game and a great idea, I love the narrative. A bit complicated at first for those who do not speak English on a daily basis but anyway it is very fun to play!

Very interesting, a lot of knowledge and useful information. I also liked how you can skip studying and do stuff around.


Here's our entry for the jam as well, all feedback possible is appreciated.

dude this game was hella funny!!  I felt like a genius when I won even though I cheated by googling how to spell things.

It's quite hard to progress for a non native speaker, but I enjoyed the voice acting and drawings :-)

I also submitted an interactive fiction for game off. It would be nice having it checked from a spelling master :-D

why cant I pass the spelling test?? i said embarrass and impeccable correct 5 times come on

is a problem with the engine I used that hates text boxes that’s why all the warnings to press enter then submit when you see the word appear and it should work. Sorry :(

its okay!! sorry if i was being rude i had a bad day. its ok we all make mistakes ^^ btw great game!!

thank you so much were you able to finish it I hope?

no problem!! unfortunately not :( i dont know why. for example i spelled the word e-m-b-a-r-r-a-s-s and when i saw the answer which was the same I knew it was okay. but after i got the message ”not even close” :/ so i couldnt pass
