That's like some people ignoring you on purpose and you going: "talk to meeeeeee!!!!".

#193I don't understand how this works? It had a picture of _____, and the correct answer was ______. Is it just guessing the country name based on the shape? edit - hid my answer in case it wasn't as obvious to others.
oh, shoot. i assumed i was trying to guess an island nation since it wasn't rendered with any surroundings. but it renders all states this way — just the border, as if it had no neighbors?
That's right, and all scaled the same too, so you have no idea of the size.

Seriously. How do you get a fresh one?

#195I was extremely confused about the distance values in relation to the percentages until I read the help: > The distances displayed correspond to the distances between the selected and the target territory centers. > For instance, the computed distance between United States and Canada is around 2260km even if they have a common border. That's extremely deceptive and non-obvious unless you read through the documentatio…

Same feeling here for all the wordle clones I have seen on HN. Only the OG wordle can afford to do that.

Worldle also doesn't require rule reading. I've been playing it for a week and never read any documentation. It's quite intuitive if you're not interested in nitpicking exactly what the distance measurement means.
It sort of does to the degree you need to know (for some words) how things work if a letter appears more than once.

It's a design feature, meant to enhance virality.
It also stops me from bingeing, which is a big plus.

I've been playing semantle.novalis.org daily. It's hard enough that I don't want to start again when I'm done and I like that everyone is playing the same game with me. The problem with this is that it's too easy to allow infinite guesses but if you don't get it in 5 you want to start again right away.
