@atoponce Can you elaborate? I tested using short, common words and this was my score.

@bitwarden Where to begin?

The first is that this is a password strength meter, and they should not be built. Troy Hunt agrees:

Instead, this "game" isn't educating users about why randomness is critical to password security, Instead, it's spreading common misconceptions about password strength through an entertaining game.

As demonstrated, it's not difficult to find trivial 3-word phrases that are obviously weak, but your game says are strong.
