Hi everyone!

Play Decodex! I created a daily cryptography puzzle game with hand-picked quotes. Can you solve today's puzzle without revealing a letter? It is free to play, of course.

Looked good but really not sure what it is telling me when stuff is highlighted or what happens when you buy a letter. Surely a letter should be green if it’s 100% correct not a different yellow?

Hi! The game doesn't let you know if you have a letter correct because you can change it later on. When you buy a letter, a random letter of the quote is revealed. This is marked with a yellow background, and since it's a fixed letter- you cannot change it.

When you buy a letter it should be green because it is 100% certain. You’re using yellow to mean “selected guess” “selected letter” (on the keyboard) and “correct letter”
