  "account": "Hurdle is a word game similar to Wordle, consisting of five rounds. In the first round, players must guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters highlighted. If the correct answer is found, it becomes the first guess for the next round, providing either several clues or none. The final hurdle reveals all correct answers from previous rounds. Each letter's highlighting does not necessarily indicate its frequency in the final word.\n\nFor the initial hurdle, the hint is \"Medical wrapping.\" The answer is GAUZE. The second round's hint is \"A collection (of songs, photos, etc.).\" The answer is ALBUM. The third hurdle hints at \"To brush past,\" with the answer GRAZE. The fourth round's clue is \"Giver,\" leading to the answer DONOR. The final hurdle, marked as \"Short,\" concludes with BLUNT as the answer.",
