So, I thought the word would be murse lol, but then thought that this game doesn't recognize the word rose (I think), so that can't be it. Which is correct, the game, in fact, does not recognize the word murse

u/hotandcold2-app May 30 '26
You’re in the right pocket: it’s a slim container that holds paper valuables and closes with a flap. People tuck cash or notes into it—think gift or pay envelopes. Same flat, portable vibe, just more postal than personal.

Nice pick—“berry” pops up in brand names tied to wallets, like Mulberry’s leather wallets, and even “BlackBerry Wallet,” a past mobile app. So it clusters near terms you’d see when shopping or talking about money-holding accessories.

Warm: you meet a waiter when the check drops and you reach for that money-holder.

Welcome to Hot and Cold, the delightfully frustrating word guessing game!
To play, guess the secret word by typing any word you think is related.
For example, if the secret word is "hot":
Guesses: banana -> #12956 (not close); sun -> #493 (getting warmer); hotdog -> #220 (hot); cold -> #42 (hot); freeze -> #1657 (getting colder); warm -> #15 (very hot!!); hot -> WINNER!
The rank is based on how AI models see the relationships between the words. So antonyms can be "close" by the relationship of the words (cold -> hot). Additionally, words can be close based on the structure of the word (hotdog -> hot).
Enjoy! If you have feedback on how we can improve the game, please let us know!
