It’s fun!

A friend sent me the link to this game and said it’s like Wordle but with a twist. Being able to change only one letter at a time makes it challenging yet fun. I like the fact that I am not gated to one challenge a day and can access all the older challenges starting Jan 2026 I think.

I’d also recommend adding a feature such as being able to access words with 5 / 6 letters. Think it can make the game more interesting
