It's an interesting game. In some ways it's "just" a guessing game; I went through a number of reasonable-sounding sentences. On the other hand, I did get to the intended answer, and not merely through brute force, which definitely makes it Thinky. And it's a good quote.
Thank you for playing, and for taking the time to write feedback : )
Your comment about going through many reasonable sounding sentences is great feedback. Since I made this game rather quickly I didn't actually think that through. I do think the game would be better if that weren't the case. Having less words with the right amount of letters would help, while balancing that with having the unused words still being evocative.
Thanks again!
