Why did this become more popular than the cows and bulls game?

  1. Did adding the constrain of 5 letter words make it simple for people to understand?
  2. The share doesn't share much info. Did that add to the mystery around the game?

Number of Combinations

  1. There are six attempts.
  2. Most cells can be yellow, grey, green, or unused.
  3. We need at-least one attempt to guess. So first row can be only yellow, grey, green. Might be better to break this down as first row green + second row green + .... + 6th row green + none of the rows green.
    1. 1st row green
      1. 1
    2. 2nd row green
      1. 5 x 3^5
    3. 3 rd row green
      1. (5 x 3^5)^2
    4. 4 th row green
      1. (5 x 3^5)^3
    5. 5 th row green
      1. (5 x 3^5)^3
