List insights

Numbers below are counted from this exact list — use them to pick a word that also fits your other clues.

• Strong openers here: OPERA, ULTRA, DELTA, SEPIA, EXTRA, MEDIA — recognisable words that cover a lot of common letters. More in best starting words.
• 291 of 653 use no repeated letters (e.g. BELGA, BENGA, BHUNA, BIGHA, BIOTA, BOHEA) — these test more of the alphabet per guess. See words with no repeated letters.
• Most vowels (4): AECIA, OIDIA, OUIJA, ZOAEA, ZOOEA. Vowel-heavy guesses lock down the trickiest slots early — see words with many vowels.
• 121 contain a double letter (e.g. BACCA, BARRA, BATTA, BETTA, BOCCA, BUBBA) — worth remembering when a letter feels “used up.” See words with double letters.
• 30 of 653 are common Puzzico answers (e.g. ARENA, AROMA, CHINA, COCOA, DELTA, DRAMA, EXTRA, FAUNA) — the rest are valid but rarer guesses, so lean on these when you think you are close.
