Today's Wordle puzzle is enough of a challenge that some new players and long-time fans will be looking for a little help. Some players might need a few hints to get to the answer, and some others might need some help with the rules or strategy.

How To Play Wordle

The original version of Wordle was purchased and is now hosted by the New York Times Games. The game's simple rules and structure and its massive popularity back in early 2022 made it easy and profitable to clone, but the NYT's version is the original and the subject of this article. If players are using a different version, they will get different answers than what is listed here. Also, the rules of Wordle clones can be slightly different from the original.

In order to start playing, just choose a great starting Wordle word. The best starting words keep in mind the rules of what a Wordle word can be in mind, so players will have to learn these rules first.

  • Wordle answers are always five letters long and real words.
  • They are never proper nouns.
  • Although they can be used as guesses, Wordle answers don't repeat and will never be plural nouns ending in S or ES.
  • Players should choose starting words that have five different common letters.
  • Avoid the offensive words that the New York Times censored from Wordle.

Type the chosen word into the Wordle grid, and press enter. This will cause the word's letters to change.

  • If a letter becomes green, it is right and in the right place in the word.
  • If a letter turns yellow, it is right but in the wrong place in the word.
  • Gray letters are incorrect.

Given these clues, keep trying new words and getting new clues until the answer is guessed or players run out of their six tries.
