I would suggest:
found? find secret-words guess
is a better solution to your problem.

guess to the output of an ask, but, reform appears to fail in this

How about:
secret-words: ["camel" "llama" "oyster"]
name: ask "What is your name? "
print join "Hi, " [name "."]
either equal? name "Randal" [
print "No secret word required. You're the greatest!"

while [not found? find secret-words secret-word: ask "What is the
secret word? "] [
print join {Sorry, but ^"} [secret-word {" was not one of the secret
words.}]
]
print "That's it! You got it!"
