🟢 Multiplayer Shiritori
Challenge friends, summon wild AIs, and build the longest chain of words you can—one letter at a time.
🔓 Getting Started
To launch a game in any text channel:
- A server Admin or Moderator (with the Manage Messages permission) must use: /startshiritori [#channel]
- The bot will post the rules and automatically generate the starting word.
- Only one active game is allowed per channel at a time.
🎮 How to Play
Multiplayer Shiritori follows classic word-chain rules with a few twists:
- Your word must start with the last letter of the previous word.
- No repeats! Reusing any word ends the game immediately.
- Words are checked against the bot’s massive internal dictionary, which includes:
- Standard dictionary entries
- Hyphenated words
- Acronyms and abbreviations
- Some conlang and obscure entries (Use
/checkto validate a word before playing if you're unsure.)
- No back-to-back turns. After your move, someone else must go before you play again.
- Try for longer, more unique words! The leaderboard rewards creativity and endurance.
🤖 AI Opponents
- Add an AI opponent using: /invite_ai
- AIs are assigned random personalities, each with distinct strategies:
- NOOB, ROOKIE, AVERAGE, PRO, VOWELLESS, PASTER, NUMBERPHILE, PALINDROMIC, MINIMALIST, ASSASSIN, SNIPER
- AI will leave if no one plays for about 5 minutes.
🧠 Special AI Summons
Want to spice things up?
!snipe– Attempt to summon the Sniper AI (20% success).!assassin– Risk summoning the Assassin AI (40% success). Failing may silence you for 30 turns...- Other AI can be manually summoned using quick commands like
!noob,!pro,!mimic, etc.
Each has unique quirks, cooldowns, and sometimes even unlocks special titles.
🛑 Ending a Game
A game session can end in several ways:
- A repeated word is played
- A valid word cannot be found
- The game is manually ended using: /endshiritori
After ending, the bot will display a summary of the game (top words, stats, etc.) and may automatically restart after a cooldown period of 2 minutes unless ended by a admin.
⚠️ Tips & Etiquette
- Play fair. While Googling isn’t blocked, the spirit of the game is about vocabulary skill and creativity.
- Use !
statusto check current game progress, average word length, and the next required letter. - Be respectful when using obscure or mature words remember your server's rules.
