About This Game Synonymy is a non-profit, educational word game narrated by Richard Dawkins where players are challenged to find a path between random words through their network of synonyms. By taking the synonym of a word, and then a synonym of that synonym, and so on, you can ultimately arrive at any other word in a language. The game supports multiplayer, and weekly challenges in which users can compete globally on set start and end words. Every time a path is uncovered by a user, it is tweeted from @synonymygame and posted to our Facebook page. All profits go to educational charities. A visualization of the game's network can be seen here -- http://tinyurl.com/med6g8b -- In order to compute relative distance, all synonyms were mapped using 3d graphing software, as if each word were a planet that had a gravitational pull proportional to its number of relationships to other nodes. Above is a 2D representation of that model, a 40,000 x 40,000 rendering. Music by Daduk a09c17d780 Title: SynonymyGenre: Casual, StrategyDeveloper:Christopher Cinq-Mars JarvisPublisher:Christopher Cinq-Mars JarvisRelease Date: 12 Dec, 2014 Synonymy Ativador Download [serial Number] This game brings up the concept of say, 7 steps to kevin bacon and the wiki walk. The goal is simple, get from one word to another. But you'll find it quite a mental challenge. Really fun to play as well.. I really like this... but what's with the drunken piano player in this game? Do they know English?*DISSONANT CHORD!* Which should indicate you've gone off track, but the word that links to the intended synonmen will be right in front of you. Perhaps the piano player isn't drunk, they're just trying to mess with you and 2nd guess your logic. Play it again, Sam!*Edit* I just started with the word "Weed" and the list of synonyms included: skunk, pee, puddle, piddle, wee, smoke??I just fact checked using a thesaurus... None of those words check out. I'm not sure whey they used for the database, but it's a real dog's breakfast.. The enjoyable type of mind exercise present in Synonymy is something I appreciate more than what other types of games have to offer. The point of the game is to find a path to make connection between words. But beware - those paths are almost never clear and effectiveness depends on how many meanings you're able to imagine going backwards from a word. That, combined with a fair dose of intuition. Every time I keep discovering new words and it stimulates a great deal of thinking. At the time being, I haven't seen a more worthwhile word puzzle on this platform.. This "game" is just too weird for me.... I can't recommend this game, not because it's entirely bad but because of the games terribly obvious mobile phone-esque controls. Don't get me wrong some mobile phone ports are great but this one just isn't. In the end of the day I'd say buy it if it's on sale if you enjoy strategy word games.. I like both the concept and the price. The execution, however, is terrible - obvious synonyms are missing (e.g. none of distort, disfigure, twist, warp or deform are synonyms for gnarl), and sometimes the synonyms don't make any sense (I think conceal was a synonym for concealment?).
