Does any one else do this daily?

Wordle - A daily word game

Guess the hidden word in 6 tries. A new puzzle is available each day.

Yes, that and 'Quordle' which is four Wordles at once. I usually get it in 4 or 3 guesses but more 4's than 3's at the moment.

off to look for Quordle now then

Never been into crosswords and the like but someone sent me a link to wordle and I had one try and got hooked! Haven't missed a day since.

I usually do it. It's not as good since the New York Times bought it. It was 'bloke' the other day, which is slang so a bit obscure. It was 'caulk' one day too, which is not a well known word in the UK unless you're a decorator. My biggest complaint is that they seem to choose words that have you trying variables of it until you hit the right one. For example, you might have '_ _ ave' and you guess brave, crave, grave etc until you get it.

It's a good fun way to spend a few minutes though, especially if you are competing with friends and family.

I do Wordle, Worldle and Quordle every day. I tried Octordle but found it too frustrating scrolling up and down all the time. I also tried Nerdle but there are too many "anagrams" that would be valid so I don't think it makes for a good puzzle. I think Quordle is my favourite, closely followed by Worldle, then Wordle.

I am sure you can work it out just add the extra letters to swear
i was not going to post that being a family friendly forum etc etc.

Its only a game! I can acess that at work but not Quordle funnily enough.

I play wordle, quardle, and "semantle".
Not daily - but 3 or 4 times a week

I did until it went 'merican. Humor, what's that? It is intended to make it subscription-based soon.

Nor I - I can't be bothered with them or playing games like Scrabble, I'd sooner stick pins in my eyes.
Grumpy, anti-social git, me.....

Yea, I like it and that once it's done, it's done for the day. Played 19, got three 5s 8x 3s and 8 x4s. Would like my averages to tip towards the 3s but seems persistently equal!

 

[pedrobedro]

I do a sudoku after I read my emails in the morning, not getting roped into anything else

Had a go and got it 3rd guess. It's what you do when something sad happens.

I've been playing one called Word Trip for the last week or so, its quite addictive, I play it on a tablet, but there is a PC version too, https://games.lol/word-trip/

Haha! Good cartoon Seadog! I've kinda gotten used to American now. We've had 'color', 'harbor' and all sorts of other horrible spellings. Adieu was on the list of acceptable words with the old regime. I certainly won't be signing up for the NYT if they start charging though. The question is, what is your favourite (not favorite!) word to start with? At the moment mine is 'Arise' often followed by 'Mount'.
