6/6. For some reason I couldn't get my brain to recognize that a word can start with those two letters.

I’m not sure I agree with trag that hard mode makes this game “easier” … maybe it does. But I will say, it prevents you from known wrong guesses (to confirm/eliminate other letters) and therefore increases your chance of not running out of attempts.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Hard mode doesn’t let you eliminate as many letters, so it’s harder.

6/6 also. Based on the letter I had left I knew it was one of two options on 5 and 6 and picked the wrong one for 5. That was a tough one.

Yeah, wonderful. Use a large emoji so the columns don't match up. Nice aesthetic choice. Very legible
