Hidden text.
I didn't take a screenshot so, going from memory: there was a yellow 'e' in the left vertical side and the vertical one in the middle (which could work for the middle letter in the bottom word). The bottom word was LEERY which required 2 'e's and there were not 2 available 'e's according to the yellow letters.

I think I did notice that, but I was able to solve it anyway. If I remember, I had one guess left :shock:

I tried this one today: https://flora.metazooa.com/

It's a whole lot harder than the animal one. I couldn't guess it.

For those playing wafflegame today - I wondered whether to put the following in spoiler tags, and I finally decided to do so. But actually, I might have appreciated knowing this before I played it, so feel free to decide whether or not to read it before you play:
Hidden text.
For those playing wafflegame today, one of the words stretches the limits of what may be considered a legitimate word. :suspicious:
