A word game for a grandmother with memory loss
A two-day Claude Code build: a sentence-trimming word game designed around how a grandmother with memory loss still talks.

The full story
The poster's grandmother has lost most of her memory over three years, and crosswords, trivia and sudoku had stopped working for her. She still speaks in half sentences, which the poster likened to writing a headline, so they made that the game.
A short, true, good-news sentence is shown and you cross out words until five remain that still hold the story. Every word stays on screen so nothing has to be remembered, and they play side by side with the poster reading aloud. It was built with Claude Code in two days.
