Riddle-game

I love that in Westron there is a specific name for this game.

  • 05.077 that the riddle-game was sacred

The sub-entry for this word is a two-word word, with a space not a hyphen, except in one example … from Tolkien (Fellowship of the Ring).  I’m giving him the credit for the hyphenated spelling.
