And now I have another dailies game my wife designed, Wordclip! peartree.games/wordclip/
How to play Wordclip

1. Tap letters to spell a word, then Submit
2. Every letter you didn't use drops out of play for good
3. Keep going with what's left. The same word can't be played twice, but its anagrams can.
4. It ends when nothing sellable is left.
