:
Corner # = closeness rank among letters in guess (1 = closest to correct).
for each letter exactly a multiple of 5 away (0, 5, or 10).

How to Play

Guess the secret word in up to 7 attempts. Each guess must be a valid dictionary word of the chosen length.

After pressing Enter, each tile shows a small rank number (1–N) in its lower-right corner, where N is the word length. The rank tells you how close that letter is to the correct letter compared to the other letters in your guess:

1 = closest to the target    higher = further away
Ties in distance share the same rank number.

Distance is measured on a circular alphabet — Z wraps back to A, so the maximum distance is 13.

A appears to the right of each row for every letter whose circular distance is a multiple of 5 (0, 5, or 10). You must work out which letters earned those checks yourself.

A correct guess gives every letter rank 1 and earns one per letter.
