Wordle is limited to words in the dictionary. Is Chessle limited to opening sequences known to theory?

When completed it gives you the name of the opening and variation so I'm guessing it is using the database code openings and we won't be seeing random garbage like 1.h4 Na6 2.f3 Nc5 etc...
Lose one queen and it is a disaster, Lose 1000 queens and it is just a statistic.

As Eric Morecambe might say - I played all the right moves but not necessarily in the right order
