Step 3: Submit and Continue Playing

  • If the grouping is incorrect, the words will not change, and you will lose one of your chances. Keep in mind that you have a limited number of attempts.
  • If you’re stuck, use the 'Shuffle' button to rearrange the words in the grid, which might help you see new potential connections.

Step 4: View Results

  • Once you have grouped all the words correctly or exhausted all your attempts, the game will show your results in a grid that reflects your performance on each turn.
  • Each row in the result grid corresponds to a turn, showing the difficulty level of the words grouped in that turn. If any mistakes are made, the row will show a different color where the error occurred.
