What is Wordle?

If you’re new here, Wordle is a simple yet addictive word game that first came out in 2021. Guess a secret five-letter word using up to six tries. Each guess brings you closer by showing:

  • Green: The letter is in the correct spot.
  • Yellow: The letter is in the word but in the wrong place.
  • Gray: That letter isn’t in the word at all.

The word is the same for everyone, which makes it fun to share your results and compete with friends!

Wordle got huge in late 2021, especially because creator Josh Wardle made it super easy to share your score using emoji boxes. It became so famous that The New York Times bought it in early 2022. Fast forward to now, and players across the globe played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024 alone!

Beyond a game, It’s a challenge for your mind.
