    Is it BEAN?

    It looks like the old mastermind game where the different coloured circles represent either a correct letter in the correct place, or a correct letter in the wrong place.

    ETA: I don't understand about the 'scores' though, so I could be completely wrong.

    I think you're right. I'm seriously impressed!!!!:D

    I get the 'scores' ;)

    Black Circle - right letter in right place

    Red Circle - right letter in wrong place

    (e.g. B of BONE is in the right place, so black circle, N and E are right letters, but in wrong place, so Red circles for each of them; AEON E and N are in the right place, so two black circles, A is correct letter in wrong place so red circle)

    Well done thrifteemee :T

    redbull from the lovely welcome i received and reading back the posts on how supportive everyone is to each other. I'd say this was the ideal place to ask for a bit of help or support x :)

    maybe this makes total sense to some lol but why only 3 circles after a 4 letter word, and how do you know that those 3 circles represent the 1st 3 letters and not the last? probably just me :rotfl: been a long day!! x
