WordFusion saves Gemini for the combinations its recipe book cannot answer
The Reddit puzzle uses authored recipes first. Its creator says Gemini supplies an element name and emoji when players try an undefined pair.

You can build a puzzle around known answers and still leave room for surprise. Keep the route to the target separate from the generated detours.
How It Works
Players combine water, fire, wind and earth to discover other elements. WordFusion’s app listing describes hand-crafted recipes, with Gemini handling combinations that have no predefined answer.
The creator says daily puzzles have a verified solvable path and that hints point toward the target. Those rules give the player a goal beyond collecting new names.
Why It Matters
For a small team, this keeps the essential puzzle within reach of an author. You can build and test the route players need, then check the generated combinations separately. The open-ended part adds variety without having to supply every answer the game depends on.
