Today's Wordle #326 Is Another Unique Puzzle

Another day, another unique Wordle puzzle. Today's Wordle is similar to yesterday's puzzle, in that the answer is an interesting word that might take a little bit of digging to uncover. We'll dig into today's Wordle puzzle later in the article, for those looking for some hints or clues. However, if you haven't done the puzzle yet, you may not want to scroll to the bottom of the article as we'll eventually discuss the answer.

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 month 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 is a pretty straightforward puzzle to solve. While it contains an uncommon letter, the answer itself doesn't share four of the same letter placements as any other potential answer. That means you should be able to solve the puzzle by making good guesses and eliminating answers. 

If you get stuck between multiple answers, remember that Normal Mode players can eliminate answers by using a word that contains letters from possible answers. So, if you need to choose between POUND, ROUND, and SOUND, it might be easier to burn a guess with a word like PURRS to determine which one of those answers is correct. Please note that players should refresh their browsers to ensure that their puzzle is up to date, as The New York Times recently updated the game to remove a potentially problematic answer.
