About

a little game of shifting letters to make words

the words list ranges between 3 and 6 letter words

how to play shiftwords:

you get a list of words that fill the board and have their letters scrambled

once you find a word, it's letters become '#' (unusable)

your goal is to find all the words, making the whole board '#'s

uses all words

lineword:

a simpler and faster shiftword, where you can only shiftt

you have to find the prompted word in the orientation given

the board is only 2 middle lines

uses 4 and 5 letter words

lineword 2:

a real challenge, same as lineword but all 4 words in the list below have to be readable in the board at once, it's always possible

uses a combination of 4 and 4 letter words and 5 and 3 letter words
