In plain words

Worderfall is an HTML5-based typing game where words fall down the screen and players must type them to clear them before they reach the bottom. Released in 2012, it offers a straightforward mechanics-focused experience for anyone looking to practice typing speed and accuracy through gameplay. The game runs directly in web browsers without requiring downloads or plugins.

    Whittle is a small word game I've been working on. Each phrase must be whittled down by one letter (or space) each turn. The remaining phrase must still consist of valid words. That's it! There's a daily puzzle, as well as an archive of old puzzles. The idea for the game came to me in a dream (really) and I built the puzzle generator with my partner, who's also a software engineer. It's a labor of love! Any feedback or suggestions are welcome. Thanks for playing!
