    [ sore ] [ popcorn ] [ grease ] [ cypress ] [ chili ] [ dispute ] [ candy ] [ scrap ] [ clash ] [ chocolate ] [ brawl ] [ slushy ] [ whales ] [ liner ] [ nachos ] [ doctor ] Yellow: Synonyms for a Fight (Dispute, Clash, Brawl, Scrap) - The yellow category is a set of words that are synonyms for a fight. This category is typically the easiest for players to identify because the words share a common theme. In my case, they are related to conflict or confrontation. I chose "fight" as the central theme because it has a range of synonyms. Words like "clash" and "scrap" add a layer of challenge because they are less commonly associated with conflicts than brawl and dispute are, so it adds complexity to the category. Green: Movie Theater Snacks (Popcorn, Chocolate, Nachos, Slushy) The green category has popular movie theater snacks, "popcorn," "chocolate," "nachos," and "slushy." This category is relatively easy to identify because all the items are commonly associated with the experience of watching movies at a theater. However, the challenge increases slightly because the category revolves around food, and other words on the list, such as "chili" and "candy," might mislead players into thinking they belong in this group. Blue: Homophones for Countries (Whales, Cypress, Grease, Chili) - The blue category is meant to be more challenging, involving homophones for the names of countries: "whales" (Wales), "cypress" (Cyprus), "grease" (Greece), and "chili" (Chile). This category requires players to think outside the box and draw on their knowledge of geography and homophones Purple: Eye ____ (Sore, Liner, Candy, Doctor) - The purple category is the hardest to get, and in this case, it involves words that can follow "eye" to form common phrases: "eyesore," "eyeliner," "eye candy," and "eye doctor." This connection makes people think about how the words can be paired together, which is harder to get.
