Some have held on for a while, escaping the allure of the game, but only for a while. Day after day, more people get bitten by the big and capitulate.
What is Wordle?
Wordle gives players six chances to guess a randomly selected five-letter word. If you type in the right letter in the right spot, it shows up green. A correct letter in the wrong spot shows up yellow. A letter that isn’t in the word in any spot shows up gray. If you do not guess the correct word for the day after six tries, that’s it for you till the next day. That keeps the thrill for the game high. It is such a simple game to play, yet powerfully addictive, as you rack your head to figure out the day’s word. And what gives it a sharp edge is that the game has a share button that lets you broadcast your daily results to the world each day. Which is why you are seeing Wordle everywhere on Twitter, for example. You can share your results to Twitter, Facebook, via email, or instant message.
Playing Tips
In deciding your first word, it is a good idea to use a word with at least three vowels. Why? They Gray boxes or tiles: do not reuse any letter that turns Gray. It isn’t in the word you are guessing. Letters can appear more than once in the same word, so try reusing a vowel or consonant that has turned green or yellow during your play. As a guide to help you, the most common vowels are: /i/, /e/, /a/, /o/, /u/. The most common consonants are /p/, /t/, /k/, /m/, /n/. Use search. There are no rules against using Google, Bing, or any other search engine. Or even a dictionary. For example, you can search for “5 letter words that begin with KN”.
