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.

I start in the middle of the alphabet, then about half way between that and whichever end it is, then repeat. So you can get a narrower range.
