okay, before adding this topic I did a search to make sure there isn't this game on here already and it's not :D i really enjoy playing this game b/c it actually requires you to think unlike a lot of other games ;x it can be confusing but i'll explain to the best of my ability.

Here are the rules/instructions:
1. The person who is leading the game thinks of a 5 letter word. It can't be any longer then 5 letters. It also can't be a proper name (I.E. Anne, Jessi, etc.) or a made up word.
2. The person leading the game gives the first letter of the word and leaves the other 4 other letters blank.
3. Players suggest words in attempt to guess the word. It has to start with the same letter that the person leading the game gave. Your guess can only be 5 letters long as well.
4. The person leading the game then looks at the suggestions and colors the letters to show if they are in the word or not:
Red letters: Means its the letter is in the word and in the correct spot.
Orange letter: Means its in the word but in the incorrect spot.
Black letter: Means its not in the word at all.
5. Players can only guess one word at a time. You can't guess another word until the person leading the game responds to your guess.
6. The person that guesses the word correctly then it's their turn to lead the game.

EXAMPLE:
L _ _ _ _

GUESS #1: LOUSY
REPLY: L O U S Y
(This means there is no O, U, or Y in the word. There is an S in the word and it's in the correct spot.)

GUESS #2: LIARS
REPLY: L I A R S
(This means there is no I or R in the word. There is an A and a S but they are in the incorrect spots.)

GUESS #3: LEANS
REPLY: L E A N S
(This means there is no N in the word. There is a E, A, and a S but they are all in the wrong spots.)

GUESS #4: LAPSE
REPLY: LAPSE
(Ding, ding, ding...you got the word!)

Pretty simple? If you have any questions you can just post them here or u2u me. I'll start:
