The Word Game

The front end for "The Word Game". See how many words you can get correct before you run out of time, or face off against a random opponent!

How to play

Type the words that show up on your screen.
Get it right at your timer will go down!
Get it wrong and your timer increases.
The longer you survive, the faster the timer gets.
