A game of strange and unusual words
designed by Steve Estvanik

This game is copyright (c) 1984,1989 by Steve Estvanik. It
is being distributed as shareware. Under this concept all
users are entitled to make as many copies as they wish.
If you like this game, then you are requested to make a
contribution ($15 suggested) to the author.
Fictionary can be played by one or more players. Each round, the word-
giver chooses a word -- from the file, or by entering a new one. This player
sees the actual definition, then enters a paraphrase. The others see only
the word and make up their own definitions. All players then vote for the
definition they think correct. Points are awarded for guessing the correct
definition and for fooling others into voting for a false definition.
When played by one person, the game becomes a vocabulary guessing game.
Teachers or parents can create custom wordsets using the Fictionary utility
program that comes with the registered version.
Users are encouraged to submit new words to Cascoly for inclusion in the
game. Registered users will receive the most current word list with their
registered copy.
