Why we picked this?

The goal of WordHex is to guess the secret five-letter word in six tries or less. Each guess must be a valid five-letter word. It’s like the hit game Wordle, but with a twist and no daily limits. A green hexagon indicates the letter is in the correct spot. A purple hexagon indicates the letter is in the secret word but not in the correct spot. A gray hexagon indicates the letter isn’t in the secret word at all. You’re able to adjust the difficulty for easier or harder secret words.
