Contexto is a word guessing game based on the use of context and semantic hints rather than its explicit definition. It can boost up vocabulary, word analogy sense and cognitive ability.
Find the secret word. You are allowed an unlimited number of guesses.
All words are ranked by an artificial intelligence program according to their similarity to the secret word.
After submitting a word, the rank of that word will be shown. The secret word will always be rank 1.
The AI has been trained on thousands of sources of text. It compares similarity based on the understanding of how words are generally used.
1. Use Widespread Words: Try to first make guesses such as "world," "people" or "object" as they are the most widespread words which enable you to know if you are on the right track or not by the semantic similarity.
2. Pay Attention to Word Rankings: Observe how the number ranking updates after each guess. Lower ranked words are semantically closer so you can use the information to guide your subsequent guesses.
3. Try Synonyms and Related Terms: If a word scores high, see if any similar words, synonyms or related words will get you closer to the secret word.
4. Use Hints Wisely: Use hints sparingly, as they use up points; however, they help you by giving hints to help steer your guesses in the right direction.
5. Play Daily to Improve: Playing everyday makes it easier for you to learn the way the word association game connects words. Eventually, you'll develop a better guess and win at the game.
