Word Quarry

A game where you have to find all the scrambled words in a grid. Each letter in the grid belongs to a word, so make sure to use each and every one of them.

The current list of words are extracted from the list provided by the Institude for the Languages of Finland.

Inspired by the "Sanalouhos" game by Helsingin Sanomat (Mikko Kivistö, Katariina Rahkola, Juhani Saarinen and Anni Mutikainen).

Current state

The repository has a script for extracting the usable words from the KOTUS list (csv_to_wordlist.py).

The game is able to create the grid of letters via a brute-force algorithm and the UI allows the user to select letters and reset the board. The actual game functionality is still under development.

Screenshot of the UI:

Usage

  1. Install the latest Pandas and Numpy libraries with
    pip install pandas
    pip install numpy
  2. Run the game from Powershell / terminal / command line with python wordquarry.py
