Under rating threshold (show) A couple things: 1) You should probably make it so the game will let you type the given letter. It's constantly screwing me up to have to type "Time" as "ime" or "Tie". 2) Starting with the levels that give you a letter is actually harder than a level where you receive no letters. You can guess any word of the available letters (to see which are right/wrong) on the no letter levels, but only a very small number of words with the given letters, so you get less information. 3)The Hint letters should probably end up as Given letters, rather than being able to overwrite them. I guess that puts you kind of in the same boat as above though, if someone is trying to hint from zero letters to one. But at least at that point, they're opting in. The fact that hint letters are overwritable while given letters aren't makes it even more wonky when you're entering partial words, as mentioned in #1. Not a bad game, just needs the edges smoothed out.

Under rating threshold (show) I need to get better at not spinning my wheels when I hit a flagrantly non-phonetic word like "asphalt." Losing on level 15 is a real bummer! I also agree that skipping over the given letters when you're typing out the word is extremely awkward, though there might not be a good solution.

Under rating threshold (show) Great game! And that person that hadn't heard of boyish and garish: I'm an non-native speaker too but those are pretty common words!

Under rating threshold (show) Quite hard to non-native speakers. I never heard "BOYISH" or "GARISH".
