All puzzles completed. Disappointing after the previous three games, Wordle 4 drops the difficulty level significantly, with most puzzles becoming fairly trivial due to alphabetised categories and small icon clues for all words. The final puzzle sets do away with both of these issues, albeit only with relatively short words - but the problem then becomes that the game only allows for a single solution, without any flexibility to accommodate alternatives that should be perfectly valid, becoming frustrating as a result. Background music is arguably a nice touch as further UI polish, but it really needs the ability to toggle this and/or a volume slider. Overall, I can't really recommend this.
