Hi There, 

I was really struggling with this same issue and I think I have resolved it using the advice from above and also adding another trigger.

  1. Set the text entry variable to blank when the timeline starts on the base layer.
  2. And adjust (variable) the slide properties to Reset to initial state.
  3. Add a trigger to the 'Try Again' layer - Jump to this slide when the user clicks try again.This seems to reset the timeline which enables step 1 to occur.
  4. I also added a trigger to the success slide - Jump to next slide.
