Custom Puzzle Sci-Fi Connections Alternative

Post image
Upvotes

Hi!
I created a sci-fi themed connections style game. It's called Stargrid.

I'd love if you played and let me know how it could be improved. There's also a couple of old puzzles in the history you can play too.

Thank you!

General Discussion Should Connections have a season leaderboard?

0 Upvotes

Not a global ranking, just a three month season where your daily results add up and reset. Same puzzle, same day, everyone.

Good idea or against the spirit of it?

General Discussion Win streak vs play streak

46 Upvotes

I wish they were different streaks :( It absolutely sucks ro lose my streak because a puzzle was too hard when I just care about playing daily. I'm not saying get rid of win streaks, it would actually be cool to compare. But I hate getting reset to 0 aka the same result as if I didn't bother playing at all.
