Give this approach a try

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.

What the game asks you to do

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

How to proceed

  1. Read each displayed word.
  2. Choose New word or Seen before.
  3. Remember words from this round only.
  4. Three mistakes end the round.

Your inputs

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

One way to understand the rules

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the controls nearby.

Where a round can go wrong

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
