Twistle - Fair is Foul


​

Fair is Foul

It's Wordle with a twist!

Today's variation: there are two vowels in the alphabet (not including Y) that are swapped - each one appears the colour that the other would appear in its place. More precisely, the game swaps all instance of one letter in your guess for the other before determining colours.

Vowels in the word are more likely to be swapped, as are more common vowels.

Rest assured that you'll never see an all-green word that's not the correct answer.

You have 7 guesses.

V
I
D
E
O

It appears that I is in the word but not in the second spot, E is in the fourth spot, and O is not in the word, but that could be wrong. If O and E are swapped, then O belongs in the fourth spot and E is not in the word. If O and I are swapped, then O is somewhere but not the second spot and I is not in the word. If A and E are swapped, then A is in the fourth spot and we have no real information about E. If A and U are swapped, then this information is all correct.
