Charming puzzle game

Each puzzle gives me a small but satisfying aha moment when I figure it out. The presentation is cute and the music is unexpectedly great (although I muted the sound effects since they got repetitive). Really nice game to have waiting when I want a small distraction.

Response from developer

Thank you so much! We're glad you enjoy the music selection, and we'll look into making the sound effects less repetitive (there is a lot of clicking ๐Ÿ˜…).

Super Unique!

I came to The Rhymatory after playing Pondersa Games's delightful Catagrams. This new word game has a unique blend of techniques that really piqued my interest; I especially enjoyed the hint system, which is helpful but not too quick to give an answer away. The hand-drawn illustrations and animations are extremely charming and put me in the mood for a cup of tea- it is both challenging and satisfying in a way I have never experienced before, which is an achievement as most mobile games are repetitive to each other in terms of style and play. I look forward to playing future pieces from Ponderosa Games and definitely recommend it to all my friends who love puzzles!

Fun word game

This app is challenging but satisfying to play!
The tutorial was helpful with some sample hints with answers to help get you off on the right foot.
Sometimes I get the correct rhyming words right off the bat and others take more pondering and head scratching.
In that case, to avoid frustration, there are various hints that can be used.
I like the โ€œsounds likeโ€ one, but if all else fails you can just get the answer.
The rhymes are clever and itโ€™s fun to solve and see the answers!
Soothing background music, whimsical drawings and some surprises if you click on some of the lamps.
Great job on this game by an indie developer!
