I didn’t try running this version of the code, but after reading the code, I had some suggestions. (I am not an official hello wordl developer, just another user.)

Let’s describe what exactly makes this “easy mode”.
| `Guesses must be valid dictionary words. Easy mode.`, | |
| `Guesses must be valid dictionary words. Easy mode – the target word will be a common word.`, |

“revel” is currently on line 14279 of the wordlist, while “murky” is on line 14502. I don’t think removing 223 possible words out of 14501 will produce a noticeable difference in difficulty. How about halving the search space by splitting on a word around line 7000?

I haven't tried this, but I think this line with the 3 old difficulty values is probably a mistake. As the line above has the new 5. So I guess this line will show them twice in the modes > Easy.
By the way, I guess the 4 lines above was not needed before, and I guess is still not needed. Or does this solve a separate issue?
