Alphaguess - another frustrating word game

Fans of Wordle, Connections etc. I've got a new one for you - Alphaguess. It can be any word at all, no limits on the number of letters, all you know is where it is alphabetically in relation to your guess - frustrating and compelling in equal measure.

I actually had my best result today by complete fluke - am often much higher numerically in guesses.

Thanks for this, OP.
Quite pleased - got it in 9 guesses, beginner's luck!
That's a new game to add to my morning list.

Oh I love Alphaguess. Been at it for a few weeks. Yesterday was my worst day. 😡
