Alphaguess - another frustrating word game

1000 replies

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.

Aaargh stuck after the 5th letter 😤 might have to do the same, give up for now and try later

Stuck today! Got the first five letters…

WitcheryDivine · 11/12/2024 13:19

I did get it in the end but found that one hard

Twofifty · 11/12/2024 18:46

I think I'm giving up today! I'm normally quite quick but I've had the first 5 letters for ages and my brain doesn't know any more words!

EwwSprouts · 11/12/2024 19:09

Another stuck after the first 5 letters.

That was the hardest I've done I think.

LifeOfBriony · 11/12/2024 19:31

Took a break and came back to it. I should have got it sooner though, it’s not that unusual a word.
