The first requested feature update is here!

Out of the small community we have already, the most requested feature so far has been a "Show 1 Letter" button. Some people feel the "Show 1 Word" button makes the game too easy all at once. Hopefully the "Show 1 Letter" button will be a nice happy medium to reduce difficulty without giving too much away.

The "Show 1 Letter" button does exactly what it sounds like: it reveals one of the blank letters in the grid. Specifically, it will reveal the next blank letter in the grid, starting from the top left and moving toward the bottom right. So if you've already filled in a letter or two, it will reveal the next one in order. This means that if you click "Show 1 Letter" once and you still can't figure things out, you could choose to click it again and reveal a second letter! And so on all the way to the fifth letter if you want.

With this change, I also went ahead and changed the function of the "Show Answers" slightly so that it will now fill in all the blank letters as well. Note that this will override any previously input letters as well.

Thanks again to everyone who's played Wordfive so far. I have other feature ideas I'm considering and I'm hoping to do a more public release soon!

Thanks,

Paul
