Wordle is a daily word game published by The New York Times where players need to solve a five-letter word within six chances. The game is based on a color-coded feedback system after each attempt. Green means a correct letter in the correct position, yellow means a correct letter but in the incorrect position. Gray means the letter is not in the word. Though rules are easy, finding the solution is not.
Wordle success is based on a combination of vocabulary and reasoning skills. Beginning with a good opening word with many vowels and commonly used consonants will help narrow down the options. A player should take advantage of the color-coded feedback to help eliminate repeated submission of wrong letters.
Many times Wordle solutions have double letters, so it is a good idea to remember this. Also, Wordlebot, an AI tool by The New York Times, can help in analyzing patterns of guessing and improve a player’s gameplay.
