How STARE Solved PRIME in Four Guesses

STARE placed E correctly and showed that R was in the word but in a different position, leaving 182 words that could still be the answer. PRIDE cut that to 3, PRICE to 2, and Word Bot selected PRIME for guess four.

STARE → 182 → PRIDE → 3 → PRICE → 2 → PRIME
