Announcing Keyboard mode: You can now choose to solve puzzles in keyboard mode, meaning that you select which subword to work on using a simulated keyboard, similar in spirit to how Wordle works. This is still somewhat experimental, and it may be more difficult than the legacy mode of play. You can choose which mode to play on a case-by-case basis, or select a default in your profile preference update form. |
