game
I’ve always enjoyed the simplicity of games like Wordle and wanted to give it a purpose beyond guessing random words, a way to learn something new every day.
That’s how WADAI was born — a fun twist on the classic daily puzzle, but inspired by world festivities!From the README.md:
📕 Introduction
Welcome to WADAI, a daily word-guessing game with a global twist.
Each day, the game selects a festivity celebrated somewhere in the world on that date. Your challenge is to guess it in five tries.
Whether it’s Christmas, Diwali, 18 de Septiembre, or a national holiday you’ve never heard of, WADAI turns cultural discovery into a daily puzzle.
🚀 Features
- Festivity-based Words: Every day’s word comes from a real celebration or cultural event happening somewhere around the world..
- Wordle-style Gameplay: You have 5 attempts (represented by the letters WADAI) to guess the festivity of the day.
- Global Awareness: Learn about holidays, traditions, and events across different cultures.
- One Game per Day: A new festivity unlocks every 24 hours!
