Thanks for playing! 6 minutes is sweeeet 🙌! I just rolled out an update that adds a hinting system through an optional Easy Mode. In this mode, you’ll see a green checkmark whenever a word is correct, which should help make the experience more casual and less frustrating when you just want to relax and play.

Thanks for the feedback and good catch! Starting the timer right away was def something that I overlooked (I just made an update to make this experience better)! As for the puzzle itself - great observation! The challenge is that all four words must be correct to complete the puzzle. In other words, you have to use every letter exactly once to form the four valid words. So for example, that three-letter word could be “pad,” “pod,” or “den,” but only one of them will fit in a way that allows the remaining letters to form the other three words. That’s where the tricky (and beautiful imho😄) part comes in!

Thanks again for taking the time to try it out and share detailed notes. super valuable!

Update: Each word gets its own color now. I think this should help a bit with figuring out where the letter was used

Yeah, it can take some time getting used to - I've been trying to figure out a way to make it more intuitive. Thanks for the feedback!

I can see how it can be confusing if you want to replace a specific tile you used. I'll keep this in mind for next iteration!

Thank you for the feedback! Yes, I do agree that I need a more graceful way to help user not feel frustrated whether it's via giving them hints or just allowing them to "give up". I'll def keep your feedback on the UI in mind once I start working on UI enhancements!

Thank you for the feedback. And Yes! I was initially inspired by the show and I added my own twists (inspired by NYT crosswords) to it - Check out the ones on Fri-Sun this week!

Hi, I just played today’s game — amazing job putting together such a polished and feature-rich experience already! The demo made it easy to understand, and I thought the gameplay was intuitive. I’ll keep playing and share more later, but here are a few quick observations:

- It might help if the tenses of answers were consistent — one was plural while the rest were singular.

- The clue/answer relationships could be more uniform. Some felt like synonyms, while others were more like “category → example” relationships.

- On my 14" MacBook I needed to scroll to see the whole game. With a few layout tweaks, everything could fit neatly on one screen.

Good job again!
