Word Count Discussion

Speaking of word counts, I think it’s important to point out that the average word count length for a Hosted Games game is 140,000 words. Out of the currently published 205 HG titles, 100 of them are above that number, 97 are below it, and 8 of them are listed as being exactly 140,000 words long.

I’m bringing it up because sometimes it seems that some folks in the ChoiceScript community view games that are several hundred thousand words long as being the norm when they’re actually the outlier.
