It’s interesting how much the placement of vowels can help you imagine the shape of the word.

One small point of feedback. It wasn’t clear that you were expected to enter a space when the clue has multiple words and uses a slash `/`.

Maybe allow the `/` to be entered, too, and add a note that the user can just enter a space instead?

Thanks for the feedback. Very helpful. I’ve added a note about the spaces but I like your idea.

I second this. I typed in the slashes and I had the correct answer, but it didn't accept it until I swapped out the slashes for spaces. I thought the rule was that we were separating words with slashes in this game, so I would expect it to accept the slashes as correct.

Thanks so much for the feedback. I've changed it so that slashes will be accepted in place of spaces.
