Word games
I'm not great at word games.
I've been getting my butt kicked regularly playing folks at Words with Friends, trading high scores in Alphabear and Wordle for years now. But I keep playing. Because even though I'm not good at word games, I really enjoy playing them.
Over the 2024 holiday break, I took a stab at making a word game based off of a name that Brandon and I had in our list of cool game names, Texas Word'em. I love the structure of Texas Hold'em—as evidenced by our horse racing game Homestretch Bet—and I wanted to see if we could make something cool combining that structure with a fun word game. So I tinkered with some prototyping during the break and when the team came back we all played it a bit and decided to get it out the door.
It's scoped way down from my original design and it has a ton of great design work contributed by the whole team and our community on Discord that has made the game way more fun.
While we were working through the last week or so of development, I shared the game with some of my friends and it turns out I'm still getting my my butt kicked at word games, even the one that I designed. Oh well 😄
I'm so proud of what the team at 2weeks has put together on this one, and hope that you enjoy playing as well.
Check out Texas Word'em! If you're playing today's seed (01/28/2025) and you can beat 394 points, you'll be kicking my butt too.
