I haven't got the right kind of brain for this game - same with Countdown. For both games, you need to have the kind of brain where possible words leap out at you. For me, they usually don't.

It's a frustrating game, so often depending on your opening word. My usual method is to try for 2 attempts and then go off and have a coffee and come back to it. Quite often the break triggers a reset and it come quite easily thereafter. Having said that I felt particularly stupid today as I couldn't think of a word with the two vowels in that order that I could make fit.
Before we work on Artificial Intelligence shouldn't we address the problem of natural stupidity.

Thought I'd post this article about Wordle et al here - I've had a look a Phrazel (see link below), but after 20 minutes staring at the screen no phrase comes to mind, and I suspect that my brain is about to explode: no doubt one of you guys will get it instantly  ;)

Not bad, given that I got none in the first line and only one in the second. Maybe I'm getting the hang of this game!
