What is Four-Letters?
Four-Letters is a word-guessing game in the spirit of Wordle, played against a friend instead of a dictionary. One of you secretly picks a four-letter word, and everyone else has 90 seconds to crack it.
Every right letter in the right spot turns its box green for good. Don't crack the word in time, and you drink. But if everyone cracks it, the word-picker drinks instead — so pick something hard, but not too hard.
