A novel idea for a puzzle game— see wut I did there— but not one that strikes me as particularly challenging or fun. Feels like a junior grade homework assignment, to be honest.
If English was a second language for me, I could see this being a good way to practice, but as a native speaker I’d just as well prefer to read these books instead of play with a gamified version.
