I like quick low-stakes browser games like this, something fun and fast to wake up your brain with morning coffee. If interested, here are some others I've come across - Linxicon - build bridges between two words ( https://linxicon.com ) WhenTaken - use clues to guess where and when a photo was taken ( https://whentaken.com ) Angle - guess the exact arc angle ( https://angle.wtf ) Metazooa - deduce the animal species…

FoodGuessr - guess the country of origin for some dish (https://www.foodguessr.com/)

That's a good way to start regional wars.

This needs to capture the backspace key so it doesn't send you back a page. Wordle used to have this problem. In the meantime, opening this in a fresh tab should help.

I like this concept. Wordle is very fun but I never liked how it was constrained to five letters. It felt like my brain was becoming very fluent in 5 letter words but not other words

The immediate key-bindings are super clutch + simple.

So much fun on desktop. A nice faded history with strikethrough attempts (optional), would be neat on the UI front.

Only thing I would change is the shuffling of characters is different for each user which can give a user an advantage over another depending on how they happen shuffle for them
