6/6. For some reason I couldn't get my brain to recognize that a word can start with those two letters.

I’m not sure I agree with trag that hard mode makes this game “easier” … maybe it does. But I will say, it prevents you from known wrong guesses (to confirm/eliminate other letters) and therefore increases your chance of not running out of attempts.

Trag is trolling, as is his right

But this is what makes it easier. Narrows my focus. Otherwise I tend to push it to the fifth or sixth guess.

Hard mode doesn’t let you eliminate as many letters, so it’s harder.

6/6 also. Based on the letter I had left I knew it was one of two options on 5 and 6 and picked the wrong one for 5. That was a tough one.

Yeah, wonderful. Use a large emoji so the columns don't match up. Nice aesthetic choice. Very legible

yeah it takes a crutch away if you can't think of a word that could be the solution
