Hello,

this is a new game but it is in French.

Umm, I think a word game in French is for most of the members here not really playable/solvable

[archaicdome]

non je parle francais.

If that sentence means, "I don't speak French," maybe I should play.

Aw well. Gave it shot. I liked they way the letters kind of flashed when you click them. Onamis makes beautiful games. No french here though so no idea how to play.

I would like it but I don't know what the object of the game is. I selected 4 letters and sports but after that I am flying blind.

Hee I'm learning french but my french level is not high enough to understand all the words there so I can't play

Je voudrais jouer la SYNO, mais je ne comprends pas.

*sigh* Now I wish I took more than just three years of french... and that was WAY more than three years ago. *lol*

Anyhoo, if it helps anyone...

Basically, the goal is to find a word hidden in the grid corresponding to your category i.e. 'animal' or 'sport' or 'bleu'. To to this, eliminate the letters that follow each other, for example A-B-C, or M-N, or P-Q-R, it doesn't matter the number of letters, in any direction (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal). The remaining letters will create the word you have to find. And yes, you have to unscramble them. Do like you would when unscrambling anything -- just randomly click letters. *lol* If you get it wrong, it flips back to the way it was and you try again. If you get it correct, it says "Felicitation" and there is clapping. Then you move onto the next puzzle (with a random category, this time).

Also, if you click the wrong button, just click it again and it'll "pop" back up.

By the way: "Conifere" is the category in which your word belongs, like "sport" and "Mot de [#] Lettres" means the number of letters in your word. Click (carefully!) SYNO at the very bottom of your gameplay screen. It is a moveable panel of sorts and will move away to show you this info.

Fun game. Now I just wish that, when I finally find the correct word, that I knew what they translated to.
