Comedy of Errors

Description

Comedy of Errors is a short literary game created for The New Yorker, published as part of its "Cartoons & Puzzles" issue from December 26, 2022. The web version adds some quality-of-life features to the version presented in print, making it easier for players to fill in the answers and ultimately solve.

Players are shown a series of quotations from Shakespeare's plays, which have all been altered by the addition of one letter to one of the words. It's up to the player to figure out the extra letter and input it. Together, all of the letters appear at the bottom of the screen and create yet another famous Shakespearean quotation.
