Dutch question words game
Ten question words, and Dutch splits where into three of them. Waar is where something is, waarheen is where it is going, waarvandaan is where it came from, and the wrong one changes what you asked.

Ten words and all seven games, so a full pass takes a minute. Warp Run rewards knowing them cold, which is the point: a question word you have to stop and think about arrives too late to be useful.

Questions
Waar, waarheen or waarvandaan?
Waar woon je? is where do you live. Waarheen ga je? is where are you going. Waarvandaan kom je? is where do you come from. In speech the second half often splits off and lands at the end of the sentence, which is worth knowing before you hear it.
Welke or wat voor?
Welke asks which one out of a known set. Wat voor, not in this set, asks what kind. Welke trein? is which train; wat voor trein? is what sort of train.
