    Description

    Diction is a word based puzzle game, where you have to make as many unique words as possible. You're given a starting word, and your goal is to turn it into a different word by adding, changing or removing only a single letter at a time. Then keep it up by changing your new word into a different one. Diction has two different play modes: INTENSE: Fight against the clock by making as many unique words as possible. Each correct word gives you some time back, while submitting a repeated or incorrect word will lose you time. See how high your score can go while the timer ticks down and the vibes get more and more intense. CALM: See how many unique words you can make with no time limit. Take as long as you like to figure out your next move. However, while you have infinite time, you do not have infinite chances. Any repeated or incorrect word will end the run. Take your time to think and see how many words you can chain.
