How it works: The computer selects a random word and the user must guess the secret word!
The rules:
- There are two versions of the game: One with hints and one without hints. (A hint would show all possible matches to the secret word based on the letters already guessed.)
- All users start with 6 guesses and 3 warnings.
- Please guess a lowercase or uppercase letter. If the user inputs anything besides a letter (unless inputting "*" for requesting a hint in the hint version), the user loses one warning.
- If the user inputs a letter that has already been guessed, the user loses one warning.
- If no warnings are left, the user loses a guess.
- If the user inputs a letter that hasn't been guessed before and in the secret word, the user loses no guesses.
- If the user inputs a consonant that hasn't been guessed and not in the secret word, the user loses one guess.
- If the user inputs a vowel that hasn't been guessed and not in the secret word, the user loses two guesses (Vowels are a, e, i, o, u.)
- Game ends if the user runs out of guesses or constructs the full word.
- You win if you have guessed the secret word before running out of guesses.
- If you win, your score will be calculated by the number of guesses remaining times the number of unique letters in the secret word.
