Choose a move for this list

ARENA leaves 15.0 matching words on average, weighted by the answer model through 2026-11-05. This is the recommended move among a fixed panel of 64 evaluated guesses. All 110 matching words count, including words outside the working answer pool.

This move is an information probe: it does not fit this list and cannot solve this illustrated position immediately. It tests letters in Normal Mode; a Hard Mode move must also keep your revealed hints.

To attempt the most likely matching answer now, AYAHS has a 0.9% modelled immediate solve chance and leaves 61.7455 words on average. This compares an immediate answer attempt with the information gained by the recommended move.

This illustration assumes only the shown green letters. Your grey and yellow tiles can change both the candidates and legal moves. Use the Solver for your complete board.

Advanced: one-turn information and shortlist comparisons

These alternatives optimize how evenly one guess splits the answers. The planner above prioritizes finishing within your remaining turns.
