My brain couldn't cope with words ending in the last two letters in that order. I got them the wrong way around on try 2, but every word I thought of ended in the wrong order...

I wonder how he got so much for what is the same as the game show Lingo but without the starting letter:

Which was based on MasterMind, which came out in the 70s as a similar board game. MasterMind itself was probably based on Bulls and Cows, which may have been around since the 19th century.

True....but then what have they paid for? If it gets ads/paywalled what's to stop people migrating to Word Master, Hello Wordl or something else. If it's for the name and recognition how do you cash in on that without monetising it.
