Description
This is a free trial version of Linxem. It has only about one third the number of available display words (see below) of the full version. This means you will see more frequent repetitions of display words. You may purchase the full version to see the full set of display words and enjoy greater variation.Linxem is a word game for 2-4 players playing in Play and Pass mode, where all players use the same mobile device and hand it round to each other as required. It can also be played in practice mode by one player.
Linxem involves a series of challenges directly involving a pair of the players, who are essentially working together to win the challenge.
In a challenge, one player of the pair, the setter, is shown a set of 30 display words (actually words or names) with different backgrounds, 18 of them green and 12 yellow.
The setter must look at these display words and select 2 or more of them that are linked together in some way. Generally, display words with a green background are selected, as those with yellow ones lead to penalties.
Having selected these, the setter must then input or say out loud a Linxem. A Linxem is a word, name, title, occupation, number or date that links them (>> "links 'em", >> "Linxem") in some way.
The other player of the pair, the solver, is then shown the full set of display words, rearranged and with no distinctive backgrounds, and must try to identify the display words selected by the setter from the Linxem given by the setter.
2 points are won for each display word correctly identified, and a bonus of 4 points is won if 3 or more display words were selected by the setter and all were identified by the solver. 4 points are lost for each word selected by the solver that originally had a yellow background. 10 points are lost for failing to complete the setting or solving phases within the countdown or for an invalid Linxem.
Linxem is a fairly unusual game in that it is primarily concerned with cooperation, rather than competition. Its scoring system introduces an element of competition, but the primary enjoyment of the game comes from being part of or observing the cooperative challenges.
The standard game is for four players playing as two teams of two players. Players in each team alternate in being the setter and solver. Any points won during the challenge go to their team, while the other team receives the points lost.
2 players can play it, as a pastime, in a similar way, where points lost go to a non-existent team called Anon.
The game may also by played by 3 or 4 players trying to win as individuals. Players come together to play as pairs in a challenge. Any points won in the challenge are shared equally by the two players in the pair, while the opposition takes the points lost during the challenge (with 4 players, points lost are shared by the other two). All players act as setter and solver in challenges with every other player.
There is also a practice mode that enables you to practise the setting phase.
When you exit the app, the game state is saved (including the countdown), so that you can continue at some later time.
The basic wordplay is similar to that of the Codenames board game.
The app is also available from i.compactfun.com if you cannot download from the Play Store. A web-based version that can be played on most browsers is also there.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
