Notice the feedback
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.

Controls
Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
