I see, you have to be able to guess the possible list not just the answer list. This is very unfortunate and makes the game nearly impossible.

I seem to have found a bug (or the word list is drastically different from Wordle). The game says I have 3 possible words remaining, but every Wordle solver website says I only have 2 (and I only have 2 guesses remaining, so this is the difference between the game being winnable and not). The guesses I used for today were WRITE,BOODY,VOUCH,COMMA (and at this point the only two possible words are FOCAL and LOCAL, but it says that there are 3 possible words).

Another point of confusion is that the first row says 2318 possible words, but there only seem to be 2309 words in the dictionary in the code

That's an interesting idea! It could be cool to have a share link that could rebuild the emoji grid.

I am working on tweaking the keyboard to be more clear so stay tuned for updates very soon around this!

True, if you are only shooting to solve it in 9 then it can be easy with the right strategy. But many in our friend group are no longer satisfied with 9 and want 7 or fewer guesses :)

My friends and I have been finding Wordle a little too easy lately so I decided to make this cursed version the other day and we have been enjoying the extra challenge. Credit goes to https://zaratustra.itch.io/dordle for inspiring this version. Any feedback is appreciated (especially around the keyboard)!
