How to play

1
Discover your playful writing gifts with a wordplay challenge. Each day, there is a creative, random, playful image. Gameplay begins when the player enters the game and chooses a nickname.

2
You have 3½ minutes to write 1 caption for the image of the day. Write long, short, funny, serious or crazy captions—you name it! Write poetry or a haiku if you like. There are no wrong captions. Channel your inner chimp! When you are done writing, the game processes your caption and gives you a word of writing-feedback.

3
Your caption is then displayed beside the image of the day. Finish by reading your caption aloud and sharing it if you wish. Detailed instructions are available during play via the help button.
