A word game from the White Mountains

Grow words from the inside out.

Most word games ask you to find words. Quillon asks you to grow them — by inserting one letter at a time into the gaps between letters that are already there.

Thanks — you're on the list. The hawk will let you know when Quillon is ready.

Letters slide in between.

Every round, a short word grows longer one letter at a time. You don't add to the end. You insert into the middle.

From somewhere specific

Built in granite country.

Quillon comes from the White Mountains of New Hampshire — the granite country around Franconia Notch, where the Old Man of the Mountain looked out over the valley for thousands of years.

The face came down in 2003. The mountains stayed. The red-tailed hawks stayed. The place kept its weight, and the game was built in that company.

The hawk in Quillon is doing what red-tails do: scanning the field, choosing carefully, striking with intent. Playing the game asks the same thing of you.

The list is short. The note will be brief.

One email when Quillon lands on the App Store. That's it.
