## Original

- A prompt appears and the turn passes from player to player.
- On your turn, type a word that contains the prompt and press enter.
- Run out of time and you lose a heart. Out of hearts and you are out.
- Letters you type fill your heart gain alphabet, and filling it gives a heart back.

## Words

Your word has to be in the list for the language you are playing in, and each word only works once per round.
