Prompts
Code a game using html, css, and JavaScript. Make the file self-contained, complete, and embeddable. Create word groups containing three terms that are similar and one term that is different. Display one group of four words at a time. Allow 20 seconds for the player to pick out the term that does not belong. Show a timer and a scoreboard for two teams. Allow the player to tap the misfit word. Allow one point for selecting the correct term that does not belong. Deduct one point for selecting any other term. First team to 20 points wins the game. Show a celebration for the winning team and play a trumpet sound and cymbal crash. Create the game in a navy, gray, white, and black color scheme. Create a bank of 1,000 words that belong in groups either as synonyms such as run, sprint, jog, dash; or words that belong in a related group by topic such as precipitation, evaporation, condensation, runoff (water cycle) for never-ending, non-repetitive game play.
Iteration 2
Make all the word boxes white with black text so that that last choice won’t be shaded.
Iteration 3
Make the text in the selected box have more contrast from the light background. Correct choices should have green text when selected, and incorrect choices should have red text.
Iteration 4
Increase the vocabulary of the game. There is currently too much repetition. Can you double or triple the available word bank?
Iteration 5
Can you add a Start button to begin the game and a Pause/Resume button to stop the timer and allow for discussion time?
