try like this

int score = 0;
Console.Write("================================================================================");
Console.WriteLine("\tThis Game allows you to Guess the characters in a Hidden words.");
Console.WriteLine("\n\tFor each character guess right gives you 5 Points\n\t\t while wrong guess gives no point.");
Console.WriteLine("================================================================================");

string words = "COMMITTEE";

foreach (char ch in words)
{
Console.Write("* ");
}
for (int i = 0; i < words.Length; i++)
{

Console.Write("\nSupply your Guess character: ");
char guess;

var keyInfo = Console.ReadKey().KeyChar;

if (words.ToLower().Contains(keyInfo.ToString().ToLower()))
{
Console.WriteLine("\nCorrect!!! 5 Points Guaranteed!!!");
score = score + 5;
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("\noops!!! No Points");
score = score + 0;
}

}
Console.WriteLine("Your Total score is " + score);

Console.ReadLine();
