A bit of fun - WORDLE. (NB, US spelling!) No spoilers please

[Nod]

A bit like the old Mastermind game but with 5 letters instead of colours. Only one word per day so not a huge time drain!

Wordle - The New York Times

Since the recent acquisition of the game by the New York Times, the new link is https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html . The one above still gets you there but via a redirect to the NYT one.

 

[Tringa]

Yes, a good bit of fun. I got today's word in four guesses.

[Nod]

Took me 5 because of a typo! A good/lucky first guess is a BIG help - got yesterday's in 3 after a first guess with 4 right letters, 2 in the right place.

 

[ecoleman]

Just got 3 on todays word.

 

[Box Brownie]

I managed 3 correct letters in the right places by 3rd attempt but it took me until 6th go to get it right !

 

[Krisstiffer]

Saw this the other day and had a go. Got the word in 3 guesses. Not tried again in case I fail miserably after a fluke first time!!

 

[jakeblu]

Managed it in 4, enjoyed that it will be a welcome diversion once a day.

 

[Norkie]

Yes, excellent, thanks for the link

P.S took me five

 

[Tigger.ufo]

Yes, excellent, thanks for the link

P.S took me five

Me too!

 

[moggi1964]

Took me two but I don't think that is an example of anything other than luck,

 

[Norkie]

Yahoo! Took me three this morning

(I'm sure there's a lot of good fortune involved!)

 

[Donnie]

Took me 4. Nice distraction for a few minutes, might bookmark that!

 

[Nod]

Today was a FAIL!!!

 

[Bobsyeruncle]

Fail for me but I don't think I understood properly....

 

[Nod]

For me today, every step was an improvement but I didn't remember one pertinent rule!

 

[Pound Coin]

5 today. There’s an element of luck, yes.

[jakeblu]

Got it in 5 today happy bunny not usually any good at puzzles so just happy to solve it.

 

[Box Brownie]

[Norkie]

I wish it were more than once per day

 

[Cagey75]

First try, took 5, pity only one per day a nice little brain excercise

 

[Donnie]

That one stumped me, took me all 6 goes.

 

[Dale.]

 

[tarric]

Another 5 today.

 

[Tigger.ufo]

[jakeblu]

Took all six today, I see pattern forming and its going downhill

 

[mj4456]

Is this a bit like Lingo the tv programme.

 

[Norkie]

Took me blooming age’s today! 5 attempts

 

[Smiffster]

6 goes a really difficlt one today

 

[Nod]

5 for me today.

Glad others are enjoying it as much as me!

Equally glad that there's only 1 per diem - could see myself falling into it if it was more!

 

[moggi1964]
