At this point I absolutely couldn't think of anything that fit - except "larch", which I see both @JPR and @SeanR used, but I wasn't sure if it was a valid word. (And if it was valid, it was probably too obscure to be the answer.)

 

So I tried to think of words that would rule out the maximum number of remaining letters. The only one I could think of that ruled out five unused letters was, appropriately enough:

 

ZILCH

 

After that, I got it!

One of those ones where I’ll no doubt eventually kick myself, but currently completely stumped after three lines, having got letters 2 and 4 locked in and knowing another needs to be in either 3 or 5. Can’t think of anything to fit which doesn’t require a letter I’ve already ruled out though!

 

Edit: Finally just brute forced it on the basis the other letter surely must be in position 3, so entered all the remaining combos for letters 1 and 5 😂

A good example of how having more letters correct can makes the solution harder. My early guesses eliminated a couple of your options.

I also got lucky with my double letter gamble - those are rare, and I happened to pick another guess that re-used the same one.

Just happy to get out of that one after drawing 2 complete blanks to start.

Also perhaps illustrates that a larger vocabulary is a hindrance in some games.... that's the theory I use when my wife regularly beats me and my best mate who is an expat (not migrant) in Saudi gets regularly beaten by a local colleague also thinks there is much merit to.

You lot would like Knotword which just came out on mobile and Steam. You do little anagram sections that make up crosswords... Sort of. I do recommend you do the quick tutorial before you dive in. It's a really nicely done little game. 

Loving Knotwords! Thanks for the tip mate 👍
