The game is Word Cookies by Bitmango. I contacted them but haven’t heard back. I’m guessing it was just an oversight, but it still pissed me off.

How does the game work? Did you have to give this answer, or is it like boggle where you have to construct whatever words from a set of letters?
It has a specific list of words in each level it accepts as answers and you have to get the whole list to go to the next level. Any other words are just bonuses. This was also the longest word in the level.
So like, it wasn’t just hiding in the game’s dictionary, but someone or some pre-coded algorithm selected it to feature?
Unless the game procedurally generates the words from a dictionary
I’m not much of a coder, but even if they’re doing something procedural, it can and should still have a blacklist.
If I’m writing a blacklist for slurs, I’m not thinking of archaic words like “griffe”. I’m just making sure it doesn’t use anything that would be used in a modern context.
Maybe it just shows a person and you have to spell there race
