This is a recreation of the famous puzzle game Connections. But a bit worse because I made it.
The game plays like this:
- There are 16 words and you must group them into 4 groups of 4 that share a hidden connection.
- When you think you see a connection. Select the 4 words and hit guess.
- If your guess is correct the group is revealed. If it's wrong you lose a life. You have 4 lives.
Built overnight using vanilla HTML, CSS and JS. No React or Tailwind.
There are many possible improvements and features which can be added to improve the game. Here are a few:
- Session saving. If you refresh the page currently it forgets everything.
- External dictionary support. This would make changing the current puzzle very easy.
- Features external to the game, for example:
- Dark theme
- A header.
- Game tutorial explaining how to play the game, with example.
- Change puzzle date. Go back in history.
- Accounts (Both local with cookies and external with OAuth). This would add the possibility for leaderboards, game history, statistics, etc.
