Reversle

For word puzzle fans who want a fresh take on the old game of deduction, Reversle flips the rules. You don't have to guess a single secret answer from start. Instead, you are given the end answer word and told to put tiles in four different rows that exactly match that word.

Details

The main objective of the game is to find four more five-letter words above the answer word at the bottom of the grid. What is the answer word? Each row has clear rules that are shown by colour, so each one is its own puzzle:
For the green tiles, you need to find the answer word that has the same letter in that spot. For instance, you would need to match the letter "O" in the second spot.
Yellow Tiles: You need a letter that is in the answer word but not where it should be.
Grey Tiles: The right word needs letters that aren't used anywhere else.
By making words in rows, these tile colour rules will help you get through the grid.

The grid is simple.

It is simple and made for quick web play, so it's easy to switch between daily grids. If you click on any row, its entry field will appear. Type your five-letter candidate word into the field, then press Enter to send. You can see right away if the words you chose follow all the rules for organization because the clean style changes all the time.

How to solve rows more quickly

First, pick out the blue tiles. Find acceptable words that use common letters that aren't in the solution word. This will help you quickly fill in the blanks.
Plan out where the yellow letters could go. Before you start typing, make a list of all the legal spots for the yellow tiles so you don't use one by accident.
Start by solving the simple rows. First finish the rows with the most green tiles, then move on to the rows with a lot of yellow lines.

Fun parts of the game

When you use reverse reasoning, you start with a known goal answer word and work your way backward.
There are different tiles in each row of an independent row puzzle, so each row is its own job.
Each day brings a new puzzle challenge with a new grid layout to see how much you know and how well you can think structurally.

Reversle is a new puzzle game that puzzle fans who like to think, use words, and analyse things will enjoy. Learn the rules for each colour and the four words that go with them. Then, finish today's backward grid!
