Yeah, I think it did for me as well. After all, there are only so many words without vowels but I was puzzled (heh) by it at first wondering if it was some new challenge.

I've been playing some of the special puzzles and they are challenging. Of course I don't do them all in one sitting. I spent 2 days messing around with this one.

This Squaredle has almost 900 words to find. I think it will keep me busy for quite some time. :P

I was surprised that my final guess was the answer. It was more of a hail-Mahler attempt.

Voronwë, do you use the same two starting words that I do?

Jude, I don't use the same starting words; I go with whatever happens to move me in the instant. That being said, I had the exact same experience that you did with being surprised that my final guess was the answer!
