Hi Hubski, I'm nearly finished polishing an online word game that I'd love to get some feedback on. It's like Wordle but the goal is to avoid making the daily word. There's a surprising amount of thinking and strategy in each round.
This started as a conversation with mk and steve earlier this year, and they've been awesome play testing. Thank you guys!
I'd love to hear if you find anything that could be better, words you think should be in the wordlist, etc. Please feel to share with others you think might like trying. Thank you!

Thanks! mk had the initial idea after steve and mk and I were sharing wordle rounds and I got this one: Wordle 1,208 4/6 β¬β¬β¬β¬π© π©β¬β¬β¬π© π©π©β¬β¬π© π©π©π©π©π© WordleBot Skill 85/99 Luck 57/99 No yellows today! and mk got this one: Wordle 1,208 6/6 β¬β¬β¬β¬β¬ β¬β¬β¬β¬β¬ π©π©β¬β¬π© π©π©β¬β¬π© π©π©β¬β¬π© π©π©π©π©π© no yellow here either! We all play hard mode, and sometimes you get these long runs where you are just changing a letter or two. mk suggested making a version where you try to make as many words as you can without repeating letters in a position, and the next week I had some free time so I made a standalone app that was very rugged but it worked. It was so much fun! We experimented with rules, and then it sat there for a while until mk prodded me again and suggested making an online version, which I had never done before. I've learned a ton!
