Tips for Word Games
For Word Guess, open with a word that covers common vowels and consonants, and treat yellow letters as positional puzzles rather than just "found" letters. For Word Scramble, look for common prefixes and suffixes first — "tion", "ing", "pre" — then fill in the middle. When stuck, say the letters aloud; hearing them often unlocks the word.
