Damn, I can't beat 375. Fun game though. Really addictive.

Cool game, but far too difficult for ESL students. It's hard for ESL teachers! I agree with someone that said this would be way cool modified for a classroom game. THAT could be the coolest ESL game ever.


Optimus,

Got my mojo working! But want to let the idea rest and settle and then spring to real life....

PS. Still unable to crack that elusive .300 Shyte, I feel like Roger Clemens -- I can throw worth a damn but I can't hit worth a damn...

286 on the first go-around. I *was* partway through typing "Athens" (which was the correct answer) when my time ran out. Damn slow fingers!

I topped out at 384, I don't think I can do better than that.

I added a game version for the classroom, viewable at the bottom of my blog post and where the game link is.

I'd love some feedback, still in beta.
I will make some more version for lower levels. Make it more visually attractive (less and bigger pictures) and also maybe make a scoresheet for individual/team play. Downloadable in flash and big screen playing, for EFL Classroom members in our ppt folders.

Still trying to break 300!
