GAMEPLAY: Not often you get word games in jams, so I was intrigued. The example in the main menu was very helpful--I got excited at a tutorial, which I never thought I'd say. With how the rotation scheme works, I'd appreciate tooltips as I hover over hexagons, or at least an undo button. I kept hitting one over par because I clicked the wrong hex--and when I got par, it didn't update my best >:(. I also couldn't go back to the menu, which was unfortunate, because I wanted to play more. Hard to find an original take on a daily word game, but I think you hit it.

VISUALS: I'd almost want it to go more minimal. Screw the gradients, screw the background. I really shouldn't be complaining, though, it serves the game well as is.

AUDIO: The mechanical take is a bit odd for a minimalist word game, but I do appreciate a few clinks as I rotate the pieces. No music, but something Wordle-esque shouldn't have any.

THEME: Hardly fits at all, but in a way, I don't see how a word game could fit the theme more.

Thank you for the effort writing up a detailed review.

To"go back to the menu", that is, to choose again between Daily and Binge, you need the restart the app. In Binge mode you can play as much as you like.

The tooltips would work on a desktop, but this is a causual game intended mostly for mobile users.
