For those who somehow have missed out on the Wordle craze so far, the rules of the game are simple: players have six tries to guess a five letter word. Players receive clues based on which letters their guess shares with the correct word. A letter shaded in yellow means that letter also appears in the correct word, but in a different letter location. A letter shaded in green means that letter appears in the same spot in the correct word.
On average, it takes Wordle players about 4 tries to correctly guess a daily puzzle, although a few puzzles can be significantly trickier. The past week has featured a number of tough puzzles,ย with FOUND breaking streaks due to sharing a 4-letter word ending with several other words,ย and NYMPH eluding players due to its lack of a traditional vowel.ย
So, what about today’s Wordle? Today’s Wordle is a pretty easy puzzle to solve. There are no duplicate letters to watch out for or uncommon letters to watch out for. In fact, today’s Wordle uses five of the eight most common letters of the alphabet. Additionally, there’s only one other word that shares four letter placements with the correct answer, so you won’t have too many options as you work your way to the correct answer.
