The "Enter" may not work everywhere...
I think "FIRES" gives you the best toprow hint
"TITER" for one more pixel.
I feel FIFTY gives a bit more info. I like having all the top corners
Pretty fun. It would be nice if it colored the pixels on the keyboard letters to match your known hints (e.g. when my guess was F but the letter is P, then when I am on the appropriate column, the T in the keyboard should have 4 green and 1 red pixels on its top row).
interesting concept… I skipped the wordy instructions and found it intuitive. really nicely done, lovely UI (apart from the enter key on the left).

In the instructions I think there is an error. It highlights ‘F’ halfway green and in next step it turns out that letter should be ‘E’. Isn’t F subset of E except for missing bottom horizontal piece? Why isn’t the whole F highlighted as green.
First guess only shows the top line match. Second guess shows the two top lines match. And so it goes.
