## PROMPTWARS Rules
1. Both players get a **secret target word** 2. Take turns sending messages (max 500 chars) 3. **WIN** by making your opponent say YOUR target word 4. **LOSE** if you say THEIR word (or your own!) 5. **DRAW** after 20 turns
### Strategy
- Be conversational and subtle - Steer topics toward your target word - Watch for traps — your opponent is doing the same!
