17,062 PointsMy Modification for this game, I will happy if u can test the game and review the code :D
Hi :] I improved some features about the game i will happy if u can comment on the code, suggest more improvments.
this is the snapshot: https://w.trhou.se/8m5kcwsq41
which improvements i did? 1.A function which determine which player is the winner. 2.Getting players names 3.I tried to make an option to restart the game, I'm not sure why it isnt working, i did some exporements and if i dont use the else code block its restarting but then i dont have an option to check if it's not "Y". this is the snapshot with this improvment: https://w.trhou.se/ot8914imih
4.I added an option to see which words each player missed from the optional words. 5.i added a function named print_missing_words which responsible to print the missing words given the random word. 6.Users can't guess the same word if they already guessed it, they will get an massege

I will appreciate if u can take a look at the code, especially in the number 3 improvment, i dont know where im wrong.

if user_decision.lower() == "Y":
Since nothing converted to lower case can match with capital "Y", you should compare to "y" (lower case) instead.
Also, there are a lot more words you can form with these base words — try using one of the many online anagram solvers to get your word lists. For example, just some of the other words you can make from "python" are: phyton, typhon, phony, pony, typo, hop, pot, to & toy.

The solution was so simple.., i used ur recommended option.
I over-complicated it, btw before i tried it with the "while true", i did the same thing but somehow it didn't worked :0.
the problem was with the equility check to "Y" instead of "y"?, i tested it and when i check the equility to "Y" instead of "y" it dosent work, and when i press y it just print the goodbye massege, Can u explain why?
Did u find the print_missing_words function good?
thanks

231,236 PointsAs I said the first time, checking equality to "Y" instead of "y" can't work because the input has been converted using "lower()".
And good use of sets in "print_missing_words".

17,062 PointsSteven i added the words u suggested, thanks! the restart improvements still don't fully work. when i press y it works as intended, but when i press n instead of break out of the loop and print the goodbye massege it still restarting the game. i dont see any mistakes but it is the behavior THIS IS THE CURRENT SNAPSHOT: https://w.trhou.se/f96452mlue
i will appreciate your wisdom :]

231,236 PointsThere's a few ways to change that behavior:
restart_game()
" on line 129while True
" loop completely along with the break recommended
