Five hidden 6-letter words, all tied to the theme — one letter of each already revealed. The remaining 25 tiles are split into three face-down decks.
Each deck shows one card, face down. Tap it to flip it over — the words that contain that letter are marked ▸; the rest fade out.
Tap a slot. Right → placed. Wrong → the tile goes back into its own deck at a random depth, and that slot is marked ✗ for it. Either way the next card comes up face down.
Missed letters appear as "could fit" chips under every word that could still hold them — your notes, kept until the letter is placed. Tap one to see exactly which slots remain (✗ = already tried).
Duplicates exist, within and across words.
You start with 15 misses. Run out and the words are revealed.
