Edit with some more thoughts:
- Linking to Ebay for the source is an odd choice; is this the monetization plan?
- Layout feels a bit weird and cluttered. In particular, on web (Firefox) the drop-shadowed panel completely hides the onscreen keyboard unless you scroll all the way down for some reason. I just typed guesses, which worked fine.
On eBay: yup that's the plan. Their affiliate program has quite generous terms, moreso than Amazon.
On the keyboard issue: sounds like it may be a bug. Did you by chance play the practice round first? Looking into it. [Edit: looks like a display issue for the non-mobile version of the game on certain screen sizes, workin on a fix]
On the bug, I did play the practice round first, but I still get the same thing now on a new page load. Looks like it's caused by the div#modalIdBox having position:relative for no very obvious reason.
so, my (non-evidence-backed) hunch is that part of what made Wordle so viral was that the player, after finishing, could not continue playing - but could _continue the experience_ of the game by sharing it with others. In my mind, if the player could play Wordle many more times in a given day, they would burn out before sharing. All of that said, I do like the idea of maybe putting more puzzles behind a Stripe purchase or something.
Thanks on the bug info, that is helpful
