Wordle has yet another challenging, five-letter word puzzle for everyone to try their hands at. In order to play this viral puzzle game, players will need to first learn the basics of how to play, and some fans might even want a hint or two to help them out with the answer.
How To Play Wordle
Wordle is a very simple game to learn, but it can be hard to master. The basic gist of the game is that players have to guess a mystery five-letter word with no starting clues. They get six whole tries before they must either guess the answer or they will lose the game. Here's the rest of the rules:
First, make sure players head to the right place. The subject of this article is the original version of Wordle and not one of its many clones; this one can be found on either the New York Times Games site or the NYT Crossword app. Other versions will have different answers than the curated New York Times Wordle answers, and they may even have slightly different rules.
To begin, choose a starting Wordle word. This word:
- Must be five-letters long and a real English word.
- Should not be a plural noun ending in S or ES; these can be used as guesses but they cannot be answers.
- Should contain a variety of common letters to Wordle puzzles.
- Should not be a previous Wordle answer.
Type the starting word into the site or app and press enter. The letters will then change colors.
- Green letters are right.
- Gray letters are wrong.
- Yellow letters are right but in the wrong position of the word.
Given these clues, keep trying new words and getting new clues until players either guess the answer or run out of tries. Wordle puzzles reset daily at midnight local time.
