How To Play Wordle

Wordle is a simple word guessing game that went viral in 2022. This popular word game gives players a mystery word once a day, challenging them to guess it without any starting clues. If there is anyone out there who has yet to play it, they will want to know the rules of play before getting started.

First, players should head of the New York Times Wordle site. While there are loads of copycats and clones, this is the original. Wordle was purchased by the NYT Games website back in February, and this is still where it is hosted. Currently, the game is free-to-play and does not require a login. Once at the site, players will need to choose a starting word. These starting words should follow a few rules:

Wordle words are always five letters long and always real English words.
Players cannot use any of the potentially offensive words that were removed by the NYT when they purchased Wordle.
Answers are almost always the American spellings of words, like FIBER over FIBRE.
Answers can contain duplicated letters, as in VIVID.
The Wordle answers are almost never plural nouns that end in S, like BIRDS.
Players should always choose a starting word with commonly used Wordle letters, like L, S, and T mixed with a couple of vowels.

After picking a starting word, type it into the top row of the 5x6 grid on the site. Press enter. This will make the letters change colors based on whether they are correct or incorrect.
