What is Wordle?

Wordle is an online word game created by Josh Wardle, a Brooklyn-based software engineer for his partner. Josh named it Wordle as a play on his last name. It is a great guessing game that you can play here. Wordle takes the form of a crossword puzzle, it’s simple and fun.

Wordle can only be played once a day. The platform presents a new word of the day every 24 hours, and it is up to you to find out what it is. In particular, the Wordle site does an excellent job of explaining the rules of the game to minimize complications.

The Wordle platform gives every player only six chances a day to guest a five-letter word selected randomly. Each spot shows up green if you get the right letter in the right spot. However, the color yellow appears when you fit the correct letter in the wrong box. Color grey will appear if you place a letter that is not in the word in any of the five spots.

You may only enter a total of six words when playing Wordle- including five-burner words as hints and one chance to use the hints given. Similarly, you may try for performance and guess the six-letter word in three, two, or even one go.
