If you currently have a cold, I would like to offer my deepest condolences; I just had one that lasted about three weeks and I felt really sorry for myself.
That said, the main COLD SYMPTOM I experienced was bad mood, something that didn’t make the list of words we were looking for.
I’m classifying this as a difficult game because it involves some tough turns, exactly the kind of challenge that’s tough to navigate when you’re competing with brain fog and a demonic SNIFFLE.
