Hello everyone.

gemini://tilde.team/~stack/game/

SpellBinding is a word puzzle - you must use the provided letters to 
construct as many English words as you can (always using the center one). 
The game uses client-side certificates to maintain game sessions.

Gemini protocol does not leave you too many tools to interact.  I am still 
trying to figure out a few things, but the game is beautifully minimal.

Thanks for all the good work.

Neat! It works for me using Elaho on iOS. I was a bit confused by the
rules at first, I thought it was like scrabble and the letter position
mattered. Once I figured it out it's quite fun though! Using
hand-curated puzzles definitely improves the quality.
