How to Play Wordle
The objective of Wordle is to correctly guess a five-letter word in six tries. Each guess provides feedback: green for correct letters in the right position, yellow for correct letters in the wrong position, and grey for letters not in the word.
Wordle's Origins
Created by software engineer Josh Wardle, Wordle began as a personal game for him and his partner. Released publicly in October 2021 on his website, Power Language, the game quickly gained millions of daily players. Its viral success was partly due to the ease of sharing results spoiler-free on social media. In January 2022, The New York Times acquired Wordle for a seven-figure sum.
Word Restrictions
While Wordle accepts most five-letter words as guesses, the daily answers are selected from a curated list of more common words. Obscure words are typically excluded. The New York Times also avoids answers that might be politically charged or considered offensive, as demonstrated when the word "FETUS" was replaced with "SHINE" following news about Roe v Wade.
Increasing Difficulty
For players finding Wordle too easy, Hard Mode can be enabled through the game's settings. In Hard Mode, all revealed letters must be used in subsequent guesses. An "Ultra-Hard" rule set requires every guess to be a potential answer, adhering strictly to all revealed clues.
Alternative Wordle-like games include Worldle (geography-based), Waffle (letter swapping), Moviedle (movie guessing), and Quordle (solving four puzzles simultaneously). Resources for improving gameplay include lists of the best starting words and an archive of past Wordle answers.
