This is a simple telegram chatbot that allows groups of friends to play the fun game popularized by lingo and revitalized by wordle. The objective is simple. One user sets a hidden 5 letter word that the other plays subsequently try to guess. With each guess, the bot will measure how close the guess was to the actual word providing the following clues:
- 🟩 The letter exists and is in the correct position
- 🟨 The letter exists but is not in the correct position
- 🟥 The letter does not exist anywhere in the word
(Note that the bot has been extended to allow words between 4-10 characters)
Word to guess: HELLO
Guesses:
- DRINK - 🟥🟥🟥🟥🟥
- LEAST - 🟨🟩🟥🟥🟥
- HELLS - 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟥
- HELLO - 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
The bot is deployed on heroku and is live! The bot is named lingowordle_bot. Simply search it in telegram and play!
