Interesting indeed.
The arcade game of semantris was really annoying because as soon as you got a word wrong the new words started to pile up making finding the original keywords difficult.
The tetris game was more pleasing and a funny thing happened to me as I tried to destroy the block "internet" with a word "google" and the second last block eliminated was "monopoly", hah. Mildly amusing.
But I'm curious to see what kind of applications can/will be made out of this.
- jjaredsimpson 9y agoAre you color vision impaired? Because I had no trouble distinguishing the words even as they moved? This might be an accessibility issue?
- tekkk 9y agoI do have mild red-green color blindness although I'm not completely sure how the game is even supposed to work. So once you get a word wrong it shows new words that are still connected to the one you're trying to eliminate? But yes once the old words moved out of the green top 4 box I could not distinguish them from the rest.
- jjaredsimpson 9y agoSo the rules are there is a highlighted word above the bottom 4. Type a word you think is semantically related to that highlighted word. Then the game will sort all words by its relation function. If the word you supplied is in the highest 4 (sorts to the bottom 4) then it explodes and you get a new word near the top of the list. The words in the box are irrelevant once you explode a word because they are sorted by the old semantic relationship. The highlighted word is light blue and all the other words are a medium grey. That's why I thought you might have a vision issue.
