Type a number from 2 to 15. Classic Solver, Smart Guess Assistant, and Clue-Based Finder all use it. Changing it clears the current guesses.
This page is the solver set to six letters. It works the same way as the five-letter version: type the word you played, click each tile until it shows the color your puzzle gave, and submit the row. The list of six-letter words that still fit updates at once, together with a ranked next guess. The word list is the public-domain ENABLE list, so plurals and past tenses such as PLAYED and HOUSES are included.

Six-letter words give you one more tile of information per guess, so a good opener matters a little less than it does at five letters, but it still saves turns. E appears in 61% of the six-letter words in this list, S in 46%, A in 43%, R in 40%, and I in 36%. A first guess that covers several of those letters without repeating any removes the most words. Ranked against the whole list, the engine's strongest openers are SERIAL, ARISEN, and SATIRE. Each uses six different letters and five of the eight most common ones.
Ranked by the distinct common letters each word tests across all 15,232 words of this length.
The six-letter list holds 15,232 words, almost double the 8,636 five-letter words. That sounds harder, and the first turn is: more words can match any one pattern. After two guesses the extra tile pays for itself, because twelve marked tiles narrow a list faster than ten. Expect the possible-answer count to fall below a hundred by the third row in most games. If it does not, the Smart Guess Assistant can suggest an information guess that tests letters you have not tried yet, even when that word cannot itself be the answer.
