Ghost is a word game where players incrementally add letters to a dictionary word, while avoiding saying the last letter
The rules are a bit confusing, so here is a quick demo on how you play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5FfWGXGQ30&ab_channel=AkhilKammila
You can play vs. the computer bots, or play online multiplayer with friends!
The first implementation of the popular word game ghost
Built a functional singleplayer mode by calling DataMuse API to validate word existence
Designed easy, medium, and hard singleplayer bots by filtering dictionary words by the parity of their lengths
Built a multiplayer mode with private rooms by using web sockets to transmit user input in real time
Deployed the backend to AWS Elastic Beanstalk for live and scalable multiplayer functionality
