I had fun playing. It took me 3:14 seconds to play, which, I think, is great!
I will note that I was a little confused at first since I must have read the rules too quickly. For some reason I was thinking that you only needed to include two of the starter letters.
Anyway, am I correct in saying that each word must contain all of the letters in the shorter word directly above it? I might be misunderstanding, but isn't that essentially the same thing as what you currently have: "each word should ... contain both the starter letters and the letters of the shorter word"
3:14, awesome time!
Yes, that is exactly right, and a nice way of putting it! I think the only reason we hesitated to state it that way is that the first row (the starter letters) is not a "word", but maybe that's ok!
Ah, I see your point, maybe something like "each word must contain all of the letters in the row directly above it"
