Smarty Pants 6

Introduction

This game plays by the same rules as Wordle, except the goal is to find a six-letter word.

Here are the full rules, if you're not already familiar with Wordle.

Like Wordle, this game assigns a unique solution to each date. Unlike Wordle, you may enter any date you wish.

This game was created with all due respect and attribution to Wordle.

There are 5,496 allowed words to use as guesses, which I mostly culled from Mieliestronk's list of more than 58,000 English words. I used all six-letter words on that list, except if the last letter was S and the other five formed a valid five-letter word. I recognize this caused me to incorrectly remove some words like CARESS, which was incorrectly marked as a plural of cares. I also noticed that the words flavor, vagina and snitch were missing from Mieliestronk's list, so I added those in. That list generally favors the English English spelling.

I would like to thank Ed Collins for his help with the word lists.
