Tips & strategy
- Open with a word rich in vowels and common consonants, such as CRANE or SLATE.
- Use your second guess to test five entirely new letters rather than rearranging the first.
- Amber letters must move — never place one in the same position twice.
- Watch for repeated letters; they are the most common reason a solid guess fails.
