"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?
