  • [Toy Train] - You're building a train out of letters -- The goal of the Engine-Driver is to form the longest word he can; on the other hand, the goal of the Braker is to form the shortest word he can.
  • [Treefort Nations] - Today, as the sun rises over the Great Wood, a feeling of determination accompanies it. All the monkeys feel certain that when the sun sets in the evening, the ultimate ruler of the trees will have been determined, once and for all...
