Redactle
Redactle is a word-guessing game where players take on the role of a newspaper editor and are tasked with finding the subject of a hidden article. The article is a random Wikipedia article with almost all the words in the article masked, making it a challenging game to play. The player must guess words that may be related to the topic of the article, and each correctly guessed word will be shown on the right side of the screen and simultaneously fill in all the blanks where the word was originally placed in the article. The game stops when the player finds the correct subject of the article. The game has an unlimited version, allowing players to practice and play one after another without limitations.
