Show HN: Eightile, A Nested Anagram Solver Game
eightile.comI made a free daily word game called Eightile. You unscramble letters to form a valid word and get another letter. You win by finding a valid 8-letter word before the time runs out. You can play in English, Spanish, French, or Galician.
It was harder than I expected to automate game creation (I wrote this by hand about 1.5 years ago), and even then it took a bit more effort to get it so it wasn't insanely difficult.
The most regular online following is on bluesky. There's a new game every day at 4am UTC. Enjoy!
It's quite difficult for non-native English speakers, but it's funny!
Thanks for trying it out! If it's any solace, it's quite difficult for a lot of native English speakers too, but it gets easier. If there's enough interest, it's always possible to add another language. You can already play in Spanish, French, and Galician too.
