Wordle

Welcome to Wordle

Wordle is a word-guessing game. The object of the game is to guess a 5-letter word in 6 tries.

In the original version, you can play only 1 wordle a day. On our site, you will be able to play as many Wordles as you want!

How to play Wordle?

Guess the word in 6 tries.

Each guess must be a valid 5 real letter word found on the dictionary. Hit the enter button to submit.

After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was to the word.

Examples

The letter is in the word and in the correct spot.

The letter is in the word but in the wrong spot.

The letter is not in the word in any spot.

How to start a Wordle game?

Think of a word with 5 letters in it.

Type it and hit Enter. You can use your keyboard (desktop) or the letters on the screen(mobile).

The game will now paint the letters in your guess with different colors: green, yellow, and gray.

With this info, you have better information about what letters should or shouldn't be in the word.

Now think of another word with the hints you received. Type it down and hit Enter.

Repeat this process until you guess the right word.

If you haven't guessed the word in 6 tries, don't worry. Although in the original version this means the game ended for you, on our site you will be able to repeat this Wordle at the end of the game.

When you find the right word, don't forget to share it on Twitter/WhatsApp or via e-mail for others to enjoy it too.

Tips for playing Wordle

Start with a word that contains as many vowels as possible and no repeating letters, such as "RADIO." More options are the words “CRANE" or “SLOTH,” which mathematicians have found to include many frequently used letters.

If you are stuck and can't think of a word with the hints provided with your guesses. Just type another word that comes to your head. But if you can choose a word that has different letters from your other guesses, you will get as many new hints as possible.

If you are still stuck at the end of the game, you can share this Wordle on Twitter/WhatsApp/e-mail so your friends can help you.

The history of Wordle

Wordle was created by Josh Wardle, a programmer living in New York. He created the puzzle for himself and his partner.

After realizing that his relatives were hooked to the game, he made it public in October 2021.

Wordle gained massive popularity after Wardle added a feature where the game results can be shared on Twitter.

Wordle is similar to a 1955 word game called Jotto.

How did this game go viral?

Wordle became viral due to two main reasons:
First of all, the restriction it made allowing only one puzzle per 24 hours held people in eager anticipation for the new puzzle the next day. But this had only limited success from the viral aspect. The second genius move Wordle's developer made was the sharing option, where you can share your progress in the game by copy-pasting several rows of green/orange/gray squares to represent your progress. Here is an example of the sharing option:
⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛
🟨⬛🟨🟨🟨
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
