How Contexto works
Insider Gaming describes Contexto as a daily word-association game: you enter guesses and the game indicates how close each one is to the answer. Its guide says guesses are not restricted to a fixed number and recommends starting broadly, then narrowing as rankings improve. It also suggests trying nouns before verbs or adjectives, since different forms of the same root word can rank differently. This is the guide’s description and advice; the game’s ranking algorithm is not independently established here.

GGRecon’s archive also gives Fisherman for February 24, but labels the puzzle #1254.
