It would be nice if there was a Give Up button. I got down to 30 possible words but could not for the life of me think of what they could be. I was craving that “Ohhhhh!!!!!” feeling when you see what the remaining possible words are.

If you want to give up you can "cheat" by using a tool like https://word.tips/

Agree on this. Some "give up" button that compares how far you got — for example: 3rd guess × 20 valid words remaining = your score — would make this easier to share and compare with others. Right now it's a fun toy but if you can't play together irl there's not an obvious compare method aside from giving the game state in a text message.

Glad I'm not the only one. Got down to 20 possible words, but could not think of any that were valid choices given the letter/position constraints I had gotten to.

I was down to two words for my last try. I already had a strong suspicion what the word was; undos had gotten me back from a situation where I had 4 of the 5 letters. I just had no idea what the other word could possibly be. If I knew that other word, I'd win. Took me an hour to figure it out.

[zeepzeep]

literally 1 possible word after I entered 2 tries :/ I have no idea which word it is

[whimsicalism]

Did you think of focal?

[shp0ngle]

Echo this. Now I am down to 1 possible word, I have no idea what it is, and I just want to know the damn word.

edit: well, I solved it by adding a breakpoint to handleWordFinishedAnimating and printing this.state.targetWord . (The whole game is run in front-end.)

Well, yeah. That was a word.
