No, imo that won't be okay. Competition is not in a picture if one can't even finish a round :)

Perhaps you can have competitive and casual modes? One with the score and no undo, another without and with respectively.

I think this is a good idea. I personally enjoy seeing where I place and trying to use the least possible number of moves. However, I also thought it would be good to be able to play as many puzzles as you want in a day, and a casual mode may be a way to do this.

There could be an official word each day that is ranked, but also randomly generated puzzles that you could play limitlessly. Only issue there is when you have words appearing in the casual mode and ranked mode, which I'm not entirely sure how to fix.
