• Por favor, copia e pega a mensaxe de erro que ves na túa pantalla, se houbera algún.
In the last three games I've played, there have been clue words that are either very obscure English words that English speakers don't use in everyday or even poetic speech (pacific) or words that are not even English like Meditarranea. As an English teacher, this was discouraging to see and also made it difficult for the people in the game, many who have English as an additional language. It significantly affected the enjoyment and in one round we only got points because someone chose all 10 cards so we wouldn't lose out.
Having quality words to match the cards is really important: words that are meaningful, but also understandable for a global audience. Even Mediterranean would be a poor word if spelled correctly because it has such a specific meaning that doesn't connect well with the spirit of the game. -

Historial de informes
cinema-much too broad
absurd- it's Dixit, they're all absurd!
farce-very difficult concept to put into art
Relatedly, some of the proper-noun clues are rather obscure from the perspective of English speakers, in particular "Corsica" and "Brittany". These may be meaningful to people from France, and, like, I know what those places are, but for English speakers they don't have much in the way of associations to work with.
However, I also reacted to "Mediterranea", that's just a typo. It's not in any dictionary I can find. Can the developers confirm whether it's a card in the actual game that's spelled like that or whether it's been misspelled when implemented in BGA?
