It's like Battleship, but with words. OK Go's Say the Same Thing comes to iOS and Android

The indie band OK Go is known for its quirky and carefully choreographed music videos, but now it's looking to make a name for itself in the world of mobile gaming.

Enter, Say the Same Thing: a nontraditional word game that has no preset correct answers.

Instead, you and a friend must try to - wait for it - say the same thing by picking words at random and finding the common ground between them.

The end result is something like the classic Milton Bradley game Battleship as you'll both take a bunch of random guesses until you eventually hit your target.

Except the target isn't a naval warship in Say the Same Thing, but rather a word that you and your friend choose simultaneously.

A game of Say the Same Thing works something like this - both players pick a random word ("Sword" and "Nintendo" for example) and then try to guess a word that connects the two ("Link" and "Zelda").

If you don't guess the same word immediately, you keep guessing from the new pair and repeat as necessary until you both enter the same word ("Triforce").

Say the Same Thing is currently available on the App Store and Google Play for free.
