jendaBTW, the word transformation is actually quite a good game when you need to entertain some people and have no better ideas - just give them two words of the same number of letters, and the person/team who transforms the word letter-by-letter in the least amount of steps within a time limit wins. Each step has to be a valid word.08:41
