Patchwork association game #2: Southern New Zealand dotterel
This game works like a standard Ultra game, except that in addition to adjacent words new words must also associate with all the existing words in the same block of colour (all blocks consist of adjacent cells). For example the word in the 2nd cell on the 2nd row must associate with all the other words in the top left block of salmon pink; the last word in the first column must associate with the three words above it. The game takes its name from a patchwork quilt and is inspired by a combination of the diagonal and hardcore association games.

An empty grid is on the talk page.

The previous game started with Dos de Mayo Province and ended with Thomas Edison. The starting word for this game was chosen by Special:Random.
