Welcome to the Quantum version of Wordle! Guess any one of two words in the entangled-pair in six tries. The two words in an entangled word pair never have overlapping letters.
The colored tiles follow special rules loosely inspired by quantum mechanics:
Classical case: If your guess matches letters with exactly one of the two words in the entangled-pair (either one), you will see completely-filled colored tiles. However, there is no indicator for which of the two words in the pair matches your current guess. This is analogous to a deterministic measurement of the closest word in the pair.
Example: If the hidden words were MUSIC and WALTZ, the guess (WEARY) is closest to WALTZ. Letter W is in the correct spot, and A is the wrong spot. Since the matched letters belong to the same word (WALTZ), you will see completely filled tiles for the whole guess.
Quantum case: If your guess matches letters across both words in the entangled-pair, you will see half-filled colored tiles for the whole guess. Similar to the previous case, these tiles don't indicate which letters belong to which word in the pair. This is analogous to repeated measurements of multiple almost identical entangled-pairs producing mixed results (duality).
Example: If the hidden words were MUSIC and WALTZ, the guess (TAXES) has letters from both words. Letter A is in the correct spot, and T and S are in the wrong spots. Since the matched letters belong to different words, you will see half-filled tiles for the whole guess (indicating interference and ambiguity).
Remember: The two words in the entangled-word pairs never share the same letters between them (contain disjoint sets of letters). You only need to guess any one of the two words in the pair to win.
This is an attempt to put a quantum twist on the popular word guessing game we all know and love. - check out the source code here
