Tips / Hints

[SSoelvsten]

One can get stuck with some words left, one is unable to guess. At this point, it would be beneficial to provide hints.

One can either add a hint button at the top (❔) or integrate it into clicking on a yet to-be guessed word. The last one allows the player to better pick the word where they need a hint.

Tasks

• Extend the game state with indices on hinted letters.
• Extend the CSS of each word to only be green for the parts one has guessed.
• Add callback to request a hint on-click.

Restrictions

• The word gives (exponentially?) fewer points when it finally is guessed.
• One should not get double points for guessing all words if hints have been used (?)
• The six letter words should be unhintable (?)
