What we've been playing

4th August, 2023

Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we’ve found ourselves playing over the last few days. This time: warring animals, wordsearches, and inventories.

If you fancy catching up on some of the older editions of What We’ve Been Playing, here’s our archive.

Hey, I got one!

I am hooked on Squaredle. It is another word-based web game, somewhere between a wordsearch and Wordle. Actually, perhaps it’s more like Boggle, now that I think about it.

Every day, you are presented with a grid of letters, and you have to find all of the hidden words within by connecting the letters. The words have to be more than four letters in length, and the longer the word, the more points you will score. It is that simple. And, as with all things that are deceptively easy, it is incredibly difficult to put down.
