Five LettersPremium

A five-letter word the scriptures use, guessed in six tries. Each guess comes back marked: green is the right letter in the right place, amber is the right letter somewhere else, and grey is not in the word at all. Only words the scriptures actually use are allowed, which is most of what makes it a scripture game rather than a word game.

How to use it

Open Games and tap Five Letters.
Type any five-letter word and press the return key.
Use what comes back to narrow it down. The keypad remembers what each letter has turned out to be.
Solve it and tap Another word to keep going.

Good to know

A word the scriptures never use is turned down, and the game says so. That rules out a lot of guesses and is part of the puzzle.
Green beats amber: once a letter is shown in the right place, the keypad keeps it green even if a later guess puts it somewhere else.
Solve several in a row and the game keeps count for as long as you stay on the page.
In Community everybody in the app gets the same word each day, and your score is the guesses you had left.
