Perhaps AI could be a stretch goal. This game sounds fun, but I suffer from a dearth of people willing to play text games with me on a single device. Idea for a simple AI: it has a 1/(x^2 + 2) chance of losing each turn, where x is the number of possible answers.

: Hi Chunes, your question got me thinking about making programs to play the game, and what strategies or algorithms could be used.
: Initially I thought a simple strategy of choosing the next wordiff with the most mossible wordiff from that word would be best - it would be a quick algorithm as count of wordiff from a word could be pre calculated and just looked up each turn leading to a fast response likely to not loose in a timed-out game against another program.
:But then I thought about if an algorithm tried to actively steariits opponent by trying to choose a wordiff that has no wordiff response -that algo might force the first to loose given enough time - especially as most of the dictionary is used up.
:An interesting question...
