Well done for starting this. I was going to do it but was unsure if we'd got enough word games already. Blossom Puzzle, March 21 Letters: E I N U O R S My score: 269 points My longest word: 11 letters ๐ธ ๐น ๐ต ๐ท ๐ผ ๐บ ๐ ๐ป ๐ฎ ๐ธ ๐น Play Blossom: www.merriam-webster.com/games/blossom-word-game

my first go was poor as I hadn't realised you can use a letter more than once. After the third go, I think I'm getting the hang of it. However, I managed to go cold turkey on my daily Wordle/Quordle/Octordle/Sedecordle/Nerdle/Worldle/Globle routine, which was taking up at least an hour of my morning, so I'm determined not to get drawn in again.

My final word scored 41 points and was one I'd never heard but just jumbled together.

I think the game needs to extend it's word range. I thought that was difficult today but not helped when the game wouldn't accept words such as Terracotta, Rotovator/Rotavator etc, and more than a dozen other everyday words that I tried.
