Sorry, I see that's what it was supposed to be on the game I was talking about. Ignore me, because apparently you can't delete comments on this.

Íslenska means Icelandic (as in the noun for the language), not Iceland. That would be Ísland.

I did two versions of this game: one using the Latin alphabet and one using each countries official language(s) writing system(s). I thought it would be useful to have two versions to compare two.
Here is the link for the other game:

I went back and forth about whether or not to use the long or short form of the official name. I think the long form makes it more interesting. I'm interested in your feedback.
