I play in Hard Mode, so that type of method rarely works
- mimimi31 4y agoI've also been playin on hard mode almost since the beginning. While it usually does make the game more interesting, it also annoyingly often makes your win depend on pure luck. Ironically this happens more often when your first guesses were very good. Imagine having SHA?E confirmed and now being forced to stupidly guess between SHAPE, SHAKE, SHARE, SHAME, SHAVE or SHADE instead of eliminating half of those possibilities with a single word. So maybe this implementation of a hard mode isn't well suited anyway if you're looking for a bigger challenge in skill.
- frosted-flakes 4y agoIf you run into that situation, then just turn off hard mode and put PRIDE to eliminate some words.
- idunno246 4y agoI found that only happens if you try to hit the most common letters in your first guesses. If you use middle of the road letters you tend to get only a couple while eliminating a lot - s and e would be bad early letters because they don’t reduce enough words
- 1270018080 4y agoYeah I started off only playing hard mode until they threw in a SHA?E word. Then I realized it's only hard because it isn't fair.
