Four definitions. One is real. Good luck

WHAT IT SOLVES

Balderdash — the lying game — turned into a solo daily puzzle

WHY IT'S INTERESTING

Product taste

It's a lying game dressed as a word game

Not a vocab test — a bullshit detector test. You pick the real definition out of four that all sound plausible. Way more interesting than "do you know this word"

Real craft

Fake definitions generated by Claude, tuned to be convincing

Real defs from Wiktionary, fakes from Claude. The hard part isn't generating nonsense — it's generating nonsense that's just plausible enough to make you hesitate

TECH GUESS

Lightweight frontend app, Claude API for fake definitions, streak stored in localStorage
