Project Overview

In this project I demonstrate working with arrays, constructor functions and recursive functions to bring a word game to life in the console.

Getting started

To get the Node server running locally:

  • Clone this repo (GIT)
  • Install Nodejs on your Mac (Download)
  • npm install to install all required dependencies
  • node index.js to start the game.

Dependencies

  • inquirer - A collection of common interactive command line user interfaces.
  • random-words - random-words generates random words for use as sample text. We use it to generate random blog posts when testing Apostrophe.
  • fs - Gives you the abilty to read and write files.
  • jsonfile - Easily read/write JSON files.

Instructions on how to play the Word Game!

  1. You will be asked for your name
  2. You will then be given chances to guess the word.
  3. Guess the word and you live.
  4. Once all your lives are done you are dead :(

Enjoy!
