I made this game while working on a different project about teaching English spelling. I was reading about homophones and got struck by how much a homophone can transform the shape of a word, so I started experimenting with little games built on that.I added a few more transforms, anagrams, verb/tense changes, but the answers kept coming out too obvious. I couldn t distort the word enough to make it interesting. The breakthrough was compound pairs. Jumping from one word to another through their compound (sea → horse, via seahorse) really obscures the path and that s when it suddenly got fun and unpredictable.I ve been sharing it with friends. I m in the UK so mostly UK testers, fair warning that a couple of the homophones may lean British.They ve been playing daily and seem hooked, so it felt worth posting here. It s one puzzle a day mainly so I actually have time to hand pick puzzles that have a satisfying path. Today s puzzle is on the easy side but they can get really tricky. The name is from betwixt , the whole game is about moving between two words. I did clock afterwards that there s a 60s board game with the same name, but they re pretty different things.
