OP here. I had been playing the NY Times' Spelling Bee until they required a subscription. Although the cost is modest, I decided it would be a fun exercise to implement for the command line. I'm using Python a lot for data analysis but this puzzle game was a fun way to explore some Python 3 built-in functions: any, all, next. I'm also proud that the code uses only built-in standard Python 3 libraries.
I've listed some ideas if anyone would like to add their thoughts, feedback, bugs - either here as comments, or at the repository issues page[0].

In this puzzle game, you have to build words using the letters in the hexagonal shape. Each word must be at least 4 letters and include the center letter. Letters can be used more than once. Each puzzle includes one "pangram", which uses all 7 letters at least once.
