Why it could be tricky
The pattern _INGO also fits DINGO and LINGO. With I, N, G and O in place, only one spot is left to settle, and each wrong try rules out one word at a time. A guess that tests several of those letters at once can settle it sooner.

bingo noun · A game in which players mark numbers on a card as they are called.
Editor's note
A closer look at BINGO
BINGO is also an exclamation used when someone finds the right answer. It has two conventional vowels, I and O, and no repeats; the NG pairing forms a familiar consonant sound.
What one guess would tell you
MOIST against BINGO would produce the colors shown above. Green means the correct letter and spot; yellow means a letter elsewhere in the word; gray means no unused copy of that letter remains. This is a calculated example, not a recorded player's guess.
