Legami (Maurizio Fonte)
Five rounds of word pairs, then the one key word that links them all.
Every day: One challenge a day for everyone in the style of La Ghigliottina: five rounds of paired words, then a final key word that links them all. New puzzle: Daily (a countdown shows the next challenge).
Legami is an unofficial Italian clone of La Ghigliottina, the final word game of the TV quiz L'Eredità. Each day you play five rounds, picking one word from each pair, and then name the key word that links the five you kept. It is independent and uses its own original word set.
About Legami (Maurizio Fonte)
Legami is one of the daily puzzles on Maurizio Fonte's website, beside Lemmia, Connessioni, Cifretto and Matassa. It recreates the format of La Ghigliottina from the Italian TV quiz L'Eredità, without being affiliated with Rai or the show, and uses an original dataset.
Each day's challenge has five rounds. In each round two words are offered and you choose one; at the end, the five words you kept all connect to a single key word, which you must guess. The connections can be idioms, compound words, titles or common phrases, so the final step rewards a wide feel for the Italian language.
Beside the daily mode there are free, training and archive modes, statistics and a shareable result. It is free with no registration.
It suits Italian speakers and fans of the TV game who want to play along every day.
