"Kill or be killed" games are beyond me, but word games, such as you describe,
are my cup of tea!
It is very similar to that found on www.freerice.com in which every successful
answer is worth
10grains of rice which is paid for by revenue from advertising, and then, is
distributed to the
starving of the world.
However, one drawback is that the base dictionary is not being, regularly,
refreshed and augmented,
so after a while, one gets to know the correct option of the 4 from which the
player makes his
choice!.
I would offer the suggestion that, if possible, this drawback should be
revised, or otherwise, your
game will have a short life!

Subject: [Audyssey] games we'd like to play: definition game
Hi list
I've been thinking about an idea for a new word game.
The game gives you a definition and you must type the word for which the
definition is.
To give an example:
The game gives the following definition:
A toiletry designed to beautify the body
The correct word is cosmetics.
Another example:
The game gives the following definition:
Elevation especially above sea level or above the earth's surface
The correct word is altitude.
Another example:
The game gives this definition:
Difficult to accomplish; demanding considerable mental effort and skill
The correct word for this definition is arduous.
The game gives you a list of difficulty levels to choose from.
On easy you can guess about 5 times the word for which the definition is
but on hard difficulty you only get one guess. ON easy difficulty the game
gives you definitions for very familiar words, but on hard difficulty the
game gives you definitions for less familiar words.
What do you all think about this idea?
Is it possible to develop such a game with bgt?
