• You have 12 guesses of varying lengths to use as clues to determine the six letter target word.
  • You'll get 250 points for a letter in the word but in the wrong position and 1000 points for a letter in the right position.
  • Points are awarded per letter in the guess word, not the target.
    • e.g. if you guessed the word NOT for the target word SWOOPS, you'd only get one score for the one O in NOT, rather than two for the two Os in SWOOPS.
  • All guesses must be valid english words.
  • Use the ScratchPad to keep track of the letters you've determined are in or not in the word.
  • To apply scratchpad colors, hold your mouse/finger down on the key then drag up to select a scratchpad color.
  • To remove colors, repeat the above and then drag down.
  • Use the Placement Boxes to help visualize the word as you pin down each letter's position.
  • Only the letters that you have marked green via the scratchpad can be placed in the placement boxes.
  • To place letters in the placement boxes, hold your mouse/finger down on the box then drag up to select the letter.
  • Click/tap the box to remove the letter.
  • Only games that you win get a "total score" and are considered for the leaderboard
  • Winning games start with a score of 6000
  • Each individual guess score is divided by ten and added to the total
  • Each skipped guess adds 1000 to the total
