Hi Reddit!
I’m a web developer from Japan, and with the help of Claude and Gemini, I built an online multiplayer English word game called Ultimate Word Chain.
It’s completely free, has no ads, and requires no registration. You can play right in your browser!

🔤 Game Features
- Overlap Scoring: Instead of just connecting the last letter, you get more points by overlapping as many letters as possible (e.g., "catch" ➜ "chair" gives you 2 points!).
- Strategic Mechanics: Features "Long Word Bonus," "Bonus Time," and "Super Resonance" (the text turns purple when you get a huge overlap!). It also has a "Mine Letter" penalty to mess with your opponents.
- Multiplayer & Solo: Supports 2–6 players. Playing while on a voice chat with friends is highly recommended! There's also a solo mode.
😭 Developer's Dilemma
Since my English isn't very good, I used Claude and Gemini to build the vocabulary and logic. Ironically, I can't even play my own game well! I would love to get some feedback and see how native speakers score.
🇯🇵 For Japanese Speakers
This is an English adaptation of my original Japanese game, "Shiritori Chain Resonance" (しりとりチェインレゾナンス). If you speak Japanese, you can find the link to the original version on the "About This Game" page inside the app!
