The strategies for guessing the letters in the game are based around the rules of the English language. Understanding the punctuation used and the frequency of certain letters and letter combinations will be important.
Start by filling in the known letters
When you start and as you discover new letters, fill in the matching spaces (same number / symbol) to clear that letter. This will help give you clues for other words in the text.
Look for Letter Patterns
Pay attention to single letters in the text. Commonly these will be A or I. Consider the most likely 2 letter words for the context of the sentence you have. These will generally contain 1 vowel and 1 consonant. Then look for other small words, the most common 3 letter words will be 'The' or 'And' but there are others of course.
Look for double letters, or repeating letters in a word (2 of the same number or symbol). These can give you more clues to the letters and the whole word they are in.
Punctuation
If the puzzle contains apostrophes, then these can also help to identify the word, I'M is common But it could also be I'D. An apostrophe before the last letter could be a plural 'S or the end of CAN'T, DON'T etc.
Longer text can give you more clues
Make sure to scroll down to read all of the long text items. It can seem confusing but there may be letter clues unlocked to fill in and more grammar clues to find.
Keep Practicing
