Easy when I started , now it’s getting tough but the stardust you get from completed boards really helps. There’s also a “ship speed” setting which makes going from board to planet not take so long. Great word game! ### 5/5 — An astrophotograper’s aide *2020-07-15* This is a fun and challenging word game that keeps this 70 year old kid awake while tending to my telescope and camera that are capturing images of galaxies and nebulae. A perfect adjunct to my hobby that keeps me awake while waiting for an imaging session to complete. Eerily appropriate. And did I say it is fun? Lots of variety and ability to control difficulty. Fun! ## Frequently asked questions about Interspeller ### What is Interspeller?
