Wordle is all over the internet these days. It has popped up all over social media, memes, and one fan even recreated a working Wordle in Minecraft. That being said, not everyone had played this word puzzle game yet. Those who haven't may need a breakdown of the rules and a few hints for the puzzle today.

How To Play Wordle

Wordle is played in browsers only through the New York Times game website. This is the original version of this game, so the rules, hints, and answers on this page will be about the NYTs version. There are tons of clones of Wordle, from Pokemon-themed ones to Fortnite ones to exact copycats, but each of these may have a slight variation in rules and will certainly have different answers. So here are the rules of the New York Times Wordle.

Players need to choose a starting Wordle word that is five letters long. It must be a real English word.
Next, type it into the NYTs game site and press enter.
The letters of the starting word will turn colors to give players some clues as to the real answer.
Green = correct and in the right place.
Yellow = correct but in the wrong place in the word.
Gray = not in the word.
Players have five more guesses to get to the correct word.
Some words have been removed from Wordle by the New York Times, so players should avoid trying offensive words and non-American spellings since they may not work.
Puzzles reset daily at midnight local time.
After completing the puzzle, players will get access to the Wordle menu. This will give them the spoiler-free share button, win streak, win percentage, guess distribution, and more.
