โ๏ธ Behind the Scenes
- Uptime Manager: Kos (on Discord)
- This bot has been in development for over three years, originally starting with a curated list from the OMG Community. Later, a friend contributed a massive list of 320,000 words, which became the foundation. Over time, the dictionary grew steadilyโscraping terms from reputable sources like Merriam-Webster and Oxford, as well as expanding through:
- Acronyms
- Word suggestions from users
- Foreign language entries
- Constructed languages (conlangs)
- And countless unique additions
- Today, the word bank includes over 950,000 entries, making it one of the largest Shiritori-focused word lists known. Itโs intentionally kept private to protect its integrity and uniqueness.
- Thereโs no anti-cheat systemโthe only enforced mechanic is checking whether a word has been used before. Players are free to use external tools like Google or dictionaries, though itโs encouraged to play without them for a more rewarding and educational experience.
- At its core, this game is about learning, exploration, and having fun with language.
๐ฎ Unique Game Modes
- Multiplayer Shiritori Compete with friends or AI in an ongoing game of linguistic strategy.
- Solo Shiritori Face off against an adaptive AI opponent in a private session to test your vocabulary and endurance.
