About the game

Synonymy is a non-profit, educational word game narrated by Richard Dawkins where players are challenged to find a path between random words through their network of synonyms. By taking the synonym of a word, and then a synonym of that synonym, and so on, you can ultimately arrive at any other word in a language.

    This is a great concept, but the game as it is leaves me with a nagging impression that the people who developed don't actually speak English. There are a great number of highly questionable "synonyms". Furthermore, the display seems to have a frustrating tendency to glitch out Lastly the claim that the game is narrated by Richard Dawkins is patently false as there is no narration.
