I kicked Wordle 3 months ago, but have been doing these for a couple of weeks. You have unlimited guesses to find a secret word, but the word is based on context and similarity rather than letter pattern. The word is usually a noun so "animal" is a good first guess.

Today was tough, but my record is 3 guesses. The scoring report is similar to Wordle.
I played contexto.me #120 but I gave up in 33 guesses.

I've been toying with Semantle (similar idea) ever since Ms.Tracy mentioned it in an article about her being made editor for Wordle.

There is a "get a tip" feature that I use after floundering 15-20 times. It gives you a word in the top 100.

Now that I'm getting the hang of it it's oddly entertaining. Don't know about "addictive", but it's alright....
