What is Wordle Game

Wordle is a simple daily word-guessing game that became widely popular online. Each day there is a single hidden five-letter English word. Players have six attempts to guess that word. After each guess the game gives color-coded feedback that helps you narrow down the solution.

How to play (step-by-step)

Start by entering any valid five-letter word as your first guess.

After you submit a guess, each letter tile changes color to show how close that letter is to the target:

Green: the letter is in the correct position.

Yellow (or orange): the letter is in the word but in a different position.

Gray (or dark): the letter is not in the word at any position (or you've already accounted for its occurrences).

Use the feedback to form your next guess. You have up to six guesses total to find the correct word.

If you guess the word within six tries you win; if not, the answer is revealed when your attempts are exhausted.

A new word is provided once per day (resets at midnight), creating a single daily puzzle to solve.

Tips and variations

Start with a word that uses common vowels and consonants to maximize information (e.g., “CRANE,” “SLATE”).

Pay attention to letter frequency and position clues from previous guesses.

Avoid repeating letters in early guesses unless feedback suggests duplicates.

Some players use “Wordle Nyt” or clones to play more than one puzzle per day.

Results can be shared as a simple grid of colored squares (no spoilers), which fueled social sharing and popularity.

That’s the essence: guess a five-letter word in up to six tries using color feedback to guide you.
