You have to start the word in the first square. I've just added an error message to highlight that when you try submit. Thanks for the feedback!

Oh so it doesn't have to use all seven squares. Interesting

Some unstated things that I didn’t understand, if it helps make the game better:

- You don’t have to use all letters.

- You do have to start the word all the way to the left.

- It has to be a valid scrabble word before you get any feedback at all.

I think you should try to give much more feedback when the player tries different things, so they have a chance to figure out the rules.

I've added an instructions page now, thanks!

The error message doesn't appear to show up on practice mode yet? I do see it on the regular mode though.

Updated now thanks!

Yeah you did it wrong, dad's gonna wipe the floor with "verb"!

But also you have to start on the first square

I think you have to start the word on the first tile.
