Mankind wages war with sword, spear and gun, but such petty things are beneath you. You destroy arguments and bring the light to the world through your spoken word! Welcome to the Great Debate!
Step into the shoes of the great thinkers Einstein, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Hal 9000, and Aristotle and destroy your opponent with pointless comments. Achieve the higher score to win.
The Great Debate is a competitive puzzle game masquerading as a debate simulator. Each round you will be asked to pick a word which is scored based on a secret criteria. Try to figure out what this criteria is to maximize your score and defeat your opponent. Some scoring rules are easy (For example, one is you get a point for every letter in the word, so longer words are better) but others are more difficult, so don't give up! The game will tell you the scoring system used at the end of the debate. There are 6 different ones total.
The Great Debate is a one or two (or zero!) player game played entirely with the mouse. Two players will have to share the mouse, unless you have two plugged into your computer for some strange reason.
