Game Explanation and Rules:

Game Format: CW Scribble (with Hangman bonus rounds)

  1. Objective: Help participants learn and practice Morse code (CW) by guessing and spelling random words using CW. Up to 10 letters and numbers will be used during the game.

  2. How it Works:

    • Each round, a player selects a random word from a pre-determined list (offering 3 choices).
    • The player transmits the word in Morse code, and the other participants have to guess the word and spell it back using CW.
    • Correct answers earn points, and the player who accumulates the most points by the end of the game wins.

  3. Bonus Round (Hangman Variant):

    • To make the game more engaging, a "Hangman Bonus Round" will be included.
    • In this round, participants must guess a more complicated word transmitted in CW.
    • This round offers additional points compared to regular rounds, encouraging participants to improve their Morse code proficiency.

Additional Game Idea: Codeword in CW

  • Concept: This variation can also be played online. Clues and answers are provided exclusively in CW.
  • Participants must decipher the clues and respond with the correct answers, all using Morse code. This version emphasizes both accuracy and speed in interpreting and transmitting CW.
