About Synonymy
Synonymy is an educational word game narrated by Richard Dawkins. You find a path between two random words by moving from each word to one of its synonyms, then to a synonym of that word, until you reach the destination.
Multiplayer and challenges
The game supports multiplayer and has weekly challenges where players compete globally to connect set start and end words.
Word network
The game's synonyms are mapped in a 3D graph to calculate relative distances between words. Each word is represented as a planet whose gravitational pull corresponds to its number of relationships with other words; a 40,000 × 40,000 rendering of the model is shown in 2D.
