Definitely more challenging but it needs some nice to haves like showing which letters haven't been guessed or that couldn't possibly matter (a zero, zero row). Also, I don't like having to press enter. But overall fun.

My two favourite starting words (SOARE and CLINT[0]) are tagged as invalid here, whereas they're valid in the original game. Literally unplayable /s (Seriously - cool idea, nice execution!) [0] https://blog.scubbo.org/posts/cheating-at-word-games-part-2/
An easy mode could provide a querty keyboard that one can eliminate letters.
Take 2 or 3 presses for Enter to submit on Firefox on Android.
I can't find a way to exit the "how to play" screen. Hitting back on Android exits the game.
