Redactle

Redactle is a word game that requires players to guess each other's secret redaction code. Each player has their own secret code, which consists of five letters chosen from the alphabet. The goal of the game is to be the first player to correctly guess the secret code of one of your opponents.

Here's how to play Redactle:

1. At the beginning of the game, each player chooses a secret five-letter code and keeps it hidden from the other players.
2. Players take turns guessing each other's secret codes by suggesting a five-letter word that they think might be the correct code.
3. After each guess, the player whose code is being guessed responds with a series of "+" and "-" symbols. A "+" means that one of the letters in the guess is in the correct position in their code, while a "-" means that one of the letters in the guess is in their code but in the wrong position.
4. Based on these clues, players must continue guessing until they correctly identify their opponent's secret code.

One of the unique features of Redactle is that it allows players to share word fragments and empty spaces with each other to help them guess the secret codes. For example, if a player guesses the word "APPLE" and receives two "+" symbols, they know that two of the letters in the secret code are "A" and "P." They can then share this information with the other players by providing them with the word fragment "AP" and two empty spaces, which represent the remaining letters in the code.

Here are some tips for winning at Redactle:

1. Start by guessing common five-letter words, such as "APPLE" or "HOUSE." This will give you a sense of which letters are in your opponent's code and where they might be positioned.
2. Use word fragments and empty spaces to your advantage. If you receive a "+" symbol for a particular letter, try to share that information with the other players by providing them with the appropriate word fragment and empty spaces.
3. Be strategic in your guesses. If you've received a "-" symbol for a particular letter, don't guess a word that includes that same letter in the same position. Instead, try to guess a word that includes that letter in a different position to see if you can narrow down the possibilities.
4. Pay attention to the guesses and clues provided by the other players. If someone guesses a word that you know isn't the secret code, try to remember that and use it to your advantage in future rounds.

Overall, Redactle is a challenging and strategic word game that requires players to think creatively and use deduction to guess their opponents' secret codes. Give it a try and see if you can outwit your opponents!
