Would be nice to have a ‘scramble!’ button so it makes it slightly easier when we get stuck

The ones I get stuck on are so obvious once the word is revealed that just a reshuffle of the letters would help.

Maybe give the player 3 chances to re-scramble the letters.

In Safari the refresh page button does this--found by accident.
