Punchline
Six tries per word. Three new words every day, in five or seven letters, each one connected to comedy. Finished all three? Every earlier day is in the archive.
Callbacks
Pick four words that share a thread. Four groups, four mistakes.
Short Set
Tap a square, tap again to switch direction. The clock starts when you do.
Ad-Libs
Fill the blanks blind. Then take the stage and hear what you wrote.
Pun-Off
Make puns out of both topics. Say a topic word, sneak it inside another word, or swap in a word that sounds like it. Sneaky puns score more.
How to play Pun-Off
You get two topics and the word pool for each (below the topics). Type a pun that uses those words, press Pun it, and keep going until the 2-minute clock runs out. The clock starts with your first pun. Each pool word scores once per round.
Words marked ♪ have a known sound-alike. Highest score wins the day's leaderboard; your best puns can go on the Pun Board, and the first person to tell a pun gets the credit.
