Product Description:

GHOST is a computer version of the age-old game in which you try to add a letter without making a word; one and two letter words do not count. If you make a word, you get a letter (the first letter is "G"). When you have all five letters ("GHOST"), you lose. In this version, you play against the computer. If the computer cannot add a letter without making a word, it takes a letter immediately. You can "challenge" the computer by clicking on the "I Challenge" button. The computer's word will be displayed and you will take a letter. If you catch the computer bluffing, the computer will take a letter. The GHOST word set includes over 80,000 American English word and you can maintain your own word set. It is surprising how many words there are that are not commonly used.

What's new in this version:

Version 2.0.0 lets the user maintain the word set using the Word Maintenance window.

GHOST ReviewGhost in the machine? - Version: 1.0.1, 9/6/2006 05:20PM PST

If you enjoy word games, this is a great little game. It runs without any problems (on my Intel Mac mini). The layout is clear and simple. The standard of play is tough but fair - it is possible to beat the computer, but you need to concentrate, and at times the computer does try to bluff its way out.

Perhaps the next development would be to have levels of difficulty, but, for a simple free game, that's being too picky.
