It's amazing what giving a game a goal, like badges, can do for it's interest level. I could've cared less about this game when I played it a week ago, now I'm hooked.
Wow, I'm seriously impressed. This is a great game and has real educational knowledge. The gameplay is intricate without being too complicated and the characters sound like real people, not exaggerated like in most games (Advanced Wars' Jake anyone?) The ending song was a great touch too. The hard work and time you put into this game is clearly shown. 5/5 and I would rate it higher than that if possible, I'll be looking out for part 3 if it's in the works.
I think 'palindromes' makes more sense than both 'palindromic' and 'palindrome', considering the way the question was asked and the fact that theres more than one. >> Either way, I'm glad I had the right word :)
Skip the story man. Seriously that made it it gruesome. Also, make the objective more clear with the teleporting things..it took me forever to even realize they existed :(
