After player enters a guess, it would give a feedback to the player's guess, with rules below: a) If the character is in the correct position, it will be marked with a double parathesis. b) If the character is in the secret word but not in correct position, it will be marked with a single parathesis. c) If the character is not in the secret word, it remains the same. If the player got the secret word within 5 turns, then the game ends early; If the player fails to get the secret word, the game ends and the player loses the game.
