Where did <\/strong>wordle<\/strong><\/em> come from? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle came up with the game in 2021 as a bit of fun for him and his word game-loving partner. It eventually became a staple of their family WhatsApp messaging, and that’s when Wardle started to suspect he might have something special enough to merit a wider release.<\/p>\n

Thousands of people around the globe now play this game each day, and fans have even created alternatives to <\/u>wordle<\/em><\/u> inspired by the original format. This includes music identification game Heardle<\/em><\/u>Hollywood nerd faves actorle<\/em><\/u> and <\/u>framed<\/em><\/u>and variations like Dordle<\/em><\/u> and Quordle<\/em><\/u> that make you guess multiple words at once<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Not the day you’re after? <\/strong>You’ll find the <\/u>wordle<\/em><\/u> answer for July 27 here.<\/u><\/p>\n

Business <\/strong>wordle<\/strong><\/em> getting harder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you’ve been finding wordle<\/em> too easy, there is a Hard Mode you can enable to give yourself more of a challenge. But unless you activate this mode, we can assure you that wordle <\/em>isn’t getting harder \u2014 although a run of tricky or slightly more obscure words might make you feel like it is, some weeks. <\/p>\n

What’s the best <\/strong>wordle<\/strong><\/em> starting word?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We have some ideas to help you pick the perfect first move. Such tips include choosing a word with at least two different vowels to rule those building blocks in or out, plus a few common consonants such as S, T, R, or N. <\/p>\n

Also, even if you’re attached to your mathematically sound starter, once it’s been the answer on any given day it won’t be the answer again for a few years \u2014 so if you happen to get the elusive 1\/6 result, celebrate by swapping out your starting five.<\/p>\n

What happened to the <\/strong>wordle<\/strong><\/em> archive?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While you could once play the entire archive of past puzzles, the archive was taken down at the request of the New York Times<\/em>according to the site’s creator.<\/p>\n

Why are there two different <\/strong>wordle<\/strong><\/em> answers some days?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The whole point of wordle<\/em> is that everyone’s solving the same puzzle, with the same answer, no matter where you are in the world. However, occasionally the puzzle game will accept two different correct solutions on the same day. This aberration is due to changes the New York Times<\/em> began making after it acquired wordle<\/em> earlier this year, excising words form Wardle’s original list that the team considers obscure or potentially offensive. <\/p>\n

To make sure you’re always getting the same puzzle as everyone else, refresh your browser before you play \u2014 don’t worry, the site will keep your streak. <\/p>\n
