What are the rules of LeWord?
You haven’t played Wordle, really? Its such a simple game you will work it out playing it but anyways:
- You have to guess the secret word in six goes or less.
- Every word you enter must be in the word list. The word list consists of common (and some not so common) words but in general there are no proper nouns or plurals. The list is by no means exhaustive - as @Mr.Blinky pointed out, there is no
CODER
word! - A correct letter turns green
- A correct letter in the wrong place turns yellow / orange
- An incorrect letter turns black
- Letters can be used more than once. This can be tricky! If the word you are guessing has a repeated letter and your guess has that letter once, it will not indicate that the letter is contained in the solution more than once.
Tactics
- Start with words containing common consonants (R, S, T) and vowels (obviously).
- For the second word, incorporate those correct from the first word and avoid the less common consonants (so avoid the letters Q, Z, X and even the K, H and J unless you know the answer.
- If you are looking to simply solve the puzzle and are not interested in the number of attempts it takes you to get there, you can enter five burner words from which you can learn hints about the letters and their placements. Then you get one chance to put those hints to use.
- The rest is up to you. This really is an easy but addictive game.
Special Keys
- Press ‘C’ while in the game itself to swap audio tapes.
- Press and hold ‘C’ within the game to quit to the main menu.
- Press and hold ‘B’ within the game to reveal the answer to the current puzzle.
- Press and hold ‘B’ on the statistics screen to reset the statistics for the chose language.
Enjoy!
Installation Instructions
This game consists of a POP file and supporting sound assets packaged in a .zip file. Please expand the contents into a directory on you computer - you will see a POP file and a sub-directory called music
