The objective of a round

Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.

  2. Green marks the correct position; gold marks an available copy elsewhere.
  3. Grey means no matching unused copy.
  4. Use the feedback to solve.

Controls

Type a guess and press Check guess or Enter. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use one clear input at a time.

A closer look at one example

With APPLE as the answer and ALLEE as the guess, the first A and final E are in the right places. The extra L and E are not both counted as present. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.

Pay attention to this rule

Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
