A version of the game that actively works against the player but with no limits on the number of guesses can be found at the following website.
(https://qntm.org/files/absurdle/absurdle.html)
If you finally reach the solution PUFFY, because so many letters have been ruled out by earlier guesses, it will switch the word internally to PUPPY. When you now try PUPPY, it will switch the word again. Finally when you try GUPPY, the game may accept that as the solution and the game ends.
It is way more difficult than Wordle.
But fun, if you are masochistic!πππ

Fun! I played several rounds, the best I could get was 6 guesses, but my average was around 8 guesses. I found a bug(?) where you can backspace through words you've already entered, but due to the adversarial nature of the game it doesn't seem to be a viable way to cheat (it just changes the answer!)

You do realize this is a non political forum?
FWIW; Good luck to Russia.

Hence why the footnote.
The companies leaving is a matter of fact, not opinion or politics - even Russians know they are going given that they are selling Happy Meals for Β£250 online ...
