Outward spiraling paths #2: "Richard Semmel" edit

Four interlocked spirals, all paths start in the centre.

Only one starting word is given (FF), chosen by clicking Random Article.

  • The next three words should be added to the other paths' starting points (FG, GF, GG). It's up to the editor placing any of these three words whether it should associate with adjacent words or not, or whether it is to be randomly chosen or not.
  • Once all starting words have been added, further words follow any of the four colored paths spiraling outward. Now, they do have to associate with their vertically or horizontally adjacent neighbours, but each path may be followed at all times, no matter how many filled adjacent squares. It is theoretically possible to play this grid with one path completed before starting the next.

In the four paths of Game #1, Dapitan spiraled out to European Union Customs Union, Captain spiraled out to Coppa Campioni d'Italia, Tea spiraled out to Milk coffee and List of California State University, Fullerton people spiraled out to Zombies of the Stratosphere. The results of Game #1 can be found here.
