To get it in 6 guesses you have to get lucky, by getting a word exactly right on the first or second guess. That has only happened for me twice. Another way to get it in 6 is if one of the words in the puzzle is made up of letters that appear in exactly the same place as other words in the puzzle. For example, if one of the words were:

COUCH

and the puzzle also had COULD and BUNCH in it, by guessing COULD and BUNCH you would get COUCH for free.

So my realistic goal every day is to solve the puzzle in 7. I always start with ADIEU to get most of the vowels. My second word: 1) must be a feasible word, 2) must contain an O, 3) must contain as many of these letters as possible, in order of priority: T, S, R, N, L. So after the first guess if I have a word that has an E in an undefined place, I like to guess STORE.

So after two guesses is where the fun begins. Usually I have to go to pen and paper at this stage. It can take a lot of trial and error.

Here is a spoiler from today's puzzle.

Spoiler!


So it is really about educated guesses based on how words are put together and lots of trial and error. I usually solve it on pen and paper before entering a word that I'm not sure of.

Another bit of strategy that has really helped me is recognizing when you have a what I would call a freeroll. It’s a chance to get some extra letters in at no additional cost. As an example:

Let’s say you have HOU__ and you know it has an “E”. So it’s HOUSE right? You don’t want to guess HOUSE though. Guess another word that ends in SE instead. Ideally it would start with 3 letters you haven’t used, but failing that, try to at least get the letters in different positions. ARISE would be an example. You’ve now added new letters to the mix and it still solves the word because all it needed was the SE at the end.
