Words!

Words! is similar to a popular word puzzle game where players try to guess a hidden word within six attempts. It's simple yet addictive, combining logic, vocabulary, and deduction. Here's a breakdown of the game:

Game Play

  1. Objective:

    • Guess the secret word (set by the game) in six or fewer tries.
  2. How it Works:

    • The player enters a word as a guess.
    • After each guess, the game provides feedback for each letter:
      • Green: The letter is in the correct position.
      • Yellow: The letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
      • Gray: The letter is not in the word at all.
    • Using this feedback, the player refines their guesses.
  3. Rules:

    • Each guess must be a valid five-letter word (not random letters).
    • The goal is to deduce the correct word within the six allowed attempts.
