  • In order to get started, head to the NYT Wordle game page or the Crossword app to play.
  • Choose a starting Wordle word. It must be five letters long. Also, it must be an English word. It should contain loads of letters common to Wordle puzzles. Players should not choose a previous word as a starting word as puzzle answers do not repeat as of the time of this writing.
  • Type a starting word into the site and press enter.
  • The letters will change colors to give players clues to the answer.
  • Green letters are right and in the right place in the word. Yellow letters are right but in the wrong place in the word. Gray letters are incorrect.
  • Using these clues, players have to guess the word of the day in just six tries.
  • Puzzles reset daily at midnight.
  • Since there is only one puzzle per day, players should be sure to use the spoiler-free share button in the Wordle menu to share on social media; this will help to prevent ruining the game for others. The menu will pop up after the puzzle is complete or can be accessed by clicking the graph icon in the upper right-hand corner of the screen at any time.
