Good game. I did not think I was going to be able to make it.

#42You should add a scoreboard! I got zanagram #5 in 3 minutes and 53 seconds. Also found two bonus words I thought I was slow but now I see others took 10 minutes and 20 minutes! Maybe I'm not so slow! Zanagrams #5 Complete in 03:53 https://zanagrams.com/
wow, that was fast. it took me 11+, but found 7 bonus ones.

#43The rules should probably explicitly mention the minimum length of four letters. (It's a reasonable rule; it just wasn't obvious from reading the info in "how to play")

#44Fun game, managed in just over 3 min. How are people taking so long...?

I also must have a weird vocabulary. "Fete" was treated as an uncommon bonus word, which doesn't seem particularly esoteric to me, but "tarragon" was one of the ones I needed to finish a certain puzzle, and I had never heard of that before.

#46Fun game! On iOS I frequently triggered a double-tap zoom accidentally, and it’s weirdly difficult to zoom back out once that happens (a second double-tap doesn’t work, and pinch to zoom out only works in some areas of the page).

#47Nive work! I solved all five puzzles and only annoyance was the quite a few singular+plural forms in the same puzzle. I expected all unique words.

#48It was fun! I like how unlike the nyt games one, you can get additional information from the edges' existence. Would advise removing having both plural/singular forms of a word. Great work!

#49This was definitely a challenge until I figured out how it works. I originally was confused by the connections and started off embarrassingly slow, but once I got a few words and letters started to disappear, I was able to power through it pretty quickly. A solid game. Suggest adding a timed option so users can brag/compare/share their time.

Bonus words for me just now included NITS and TITS! I think the explanation about them being lesser known just confuses; it's more that they're not essential to completing the puzzle.
