Copy Editor: A RegEx Puzzle

Un 10. Perfecta combinación de puzzle y perfeccionamiento de tus capacidades de expresiones regulares. Le añadiria música y poder reproducirla segun se eliga con... una expresion regular :D

I am loving it. I love the chatbox conversations the coworkers are having. I love the stupid caricature of the boss type. I love the writing sample selections. I love the color. While this game is in desperate need of a tutorial that experts could skip and the zoom function for the text area is a little awkward, it's totally workable. Most importantly, I love how this worked out so well as a game to sit and play cooperatively with someone. It's fun to solve these puzzles together and try to optimize the work you've done. This was absolutely worth the small fee to buy this game.

It could have been better. I hope it gets better.

La verdad que no he jugado mucho este juego, pero lo poco que he estado, me ha encantado. Soy una persona a quien le encanta escribir y derrepente apareció este juego, que me permitía escribir y además con puzles (Otro género que me encanta). Totalmente recomendado si te gustan las letritas.

What an unusual subject. But this is a good puzzle game. Very weird rules, and maybe not the broadest appeal - but, play this, and you will be better at doing a lot of things. It's obvious what for programmers, but for others too, this is incredibly useful stuff in a broad sense - useful for updating text, or searching for specific things, or simply replacing all occurrences of one name with another while maintaining grammatical rules. The development team is responsive, fun, and passionate about both gameplay and learning. A delightful fusion and a solid recommend if you think maybe you're interested. If you're totally unaware what RegEx is, you may want to give it a pass... but it's a good mind-bending standalone puzzle in it's own right, too. (tips: keep regexr (website) open in the background. have a pocket guide to regex in another tab so you can look up whether you need a ? or a + or a *. Don't be shy to use the tips, either - solving without them can be quite hard sometimes!)

Explicitly forbids you from using certain constructs until the game teaches them to you at a later time. Basically, you are forced to create a worse solution, instead of the just handing you the tools to create the best possible one.

Do write text parsers? Do you like dream in RegEx? Do you feel that you need RegEx even when you step away from your programming? Then fear not, this game is for you.
