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, with FOUND breaking streaks due to sharing a 4-letter word ending with several other words, and NYMPH eluding players due to its lack of a traditional vowel.
So, what about today’s Wordle? Today’s Wordle puzzle is tricky because it mostly contains common letters with multiple possible combinations. It shouldn’t be too hard to figure out at least three of the letters, but getting them in the right slot could be a lot harder. There’s also at least one word that has four of the same letter placements as the correct letter, which makes things even trickier.
