It's like no other game you've ever played before. How does it work? Simple!Pick a word and take a swing. Twirdie searches Twitter to see how many times your word was tweeted in the past 60 seconds. The resulting number is how far your ball travels. The more tweets matching your search, the stronger your shot. Careful though, as you get closer to the hole you'll have to start thinking of words that aren't so popular.As you play you start to think about local and global trends. For example, Monday morning at 9 am might be the perfect time to use the word “coffee” while “pizza” just might do the trick late night on a Friday. But Twirdie isn’t just about the common weekly trends that naturally occur during the days of the week. Twirdie is a live data game where people are playing with data that is changing every second. What happens when Lady Gaga releases an album, or when President Obama addresses the nation? Twirdie is a simple but addictive game where players learn about, and play with the world around them as it changes in real time. Now you can play with what the world is talking about.Don't believe us? Here's what others have said."Twirdie combines the two pursuits, in a way that people who love Twitter will love ..."

    Twirdie works for the most part though, mostly veering away from being too tough. It does feel a little gimmicky but there's enough content to keep playing.
