Fun game though I wish it left more time for the longer words, also wish we could have the letters in one line and shuffle them

You should take a look at this:

Very similar in spirit, but IMHO a lot more enjoyable than your version. It's untimed which takes the pressure off, but still a challenge because there are multiple potentially correct answers.

The on-line version doesn't seem to be working, and I don't have an android device so I can't tell if the app is still working either. But I ran this on my nexus 7 for years until it died. It was one of my favorite on-line games. I would happily pay someone to port it to ios.

Some kinds of brains must just not be good at this kind of game.

I used to win spelling bees in school, but I played the entire archive on this game and my highest score was 6/18.

Maybe it has to do with the balance between audio and visual learning. Spelling bees are spoken words in, letters out -- not letters in, words out. When trying to solve these, I kept trying to sound out different orderings of letters, maybe that's not how good players do it?

This game helped me realise I'm a doofus 10/10

I don't mind the timer as much, but I also like some of the suggested improvements here.

The only thing I really don't like, is that each puzzle can only be played once. I would like to figure out all words of a day even if it doesn't count.

This could even be an interesting statistic, how many people finished all words ignoring the time component.

Cool. I wish I could choose British English as an option though, I failed to get words like Humor or Color because they’re just not in my lexiy.

I beat it! This is the first of your challenges I’ve actually completed.

It’s coming along nicely btw, some people are saying they don’t like the timer but I personally think the timer adds a lot to it. Also only being able to attempt once makes it more competitive, like if you combined hardcore minecraft and wordle. Hardcore wordle.

This was harder than I thought it would be. It's pretty fun to play! May I suggest displaying the final result and/or ongoing progress as 18 circles/shapes that fill up depending on how far you made it?

Something about not being able to shuffle the tiles makes this hard for me.

I didn’t realize the word “crowd“ only had one vowel until I saw it scrambled!
