I hate it when luck
Played the 'ponder' mode first (as it was first on the menu) then got muddled as to what was going on.
I just didn't think the rules could be what they actually turned out to be.
I then read the instructions, then played the 'progress' game, where I got to about 2000 points.
+++++ Seems like a big dictionary.
+++ I like the aliteration.
- I think 'prepare' should maybe be at the top, so folk click on it.
-- I think 'ponder' should maybe end when you reach 200 points, seeing as you've completed that game...
------ I'm basically not too keen on the game mechanics. I feel that with it being random what selection we get next, the RNG plays too large a role in determining our success.
--- The scoring system isn't really properly explained.
+++ It is fairly original though.

Nice game, but I hate it when luck plays such a big role in my success.
Maybe for your next project you could make a game based off Scrabble - we'd use the tiles/points system from that and we have to make a word and try to get as many points as we can from each word.
I think that'd be a better basis for a game and you could surely make that.
