The Origins of Wordle
Wordle was originally created by Josh Wardle, an engineer, as a thoughtful gift for his partner. It quickly gained worldwide popularity, drawing in thousands of daily players. Fans have even developed spin-offs like:
- Squabble: A battle royale-style Wordle.
- Heardle: A game focused on identifying songs.
- Dordle and Quordle: Where you guess multiple words simultaneously.
Its immense success led to The New York Times acquiring the game. Since then, Wordle has become a mainstay in daily routines, and TikTok creators even stream their Wordle attempts live!
Choosing the Best Starting Word
The best Wordle starting word is one that suits your style, but strategic choices can give you an edge. Aim for words that include:
- Two or more vowels to uncover vowel placements early.
- Common consonants like S, T, R, or N for broader coverage.
This approach narrows down possibilities and makes solving faster.
What Happened to the Wordle Archive?
In the past, all previous Wordle puzzles were available for replay via an unofficial archive. However, at the New York Times’ request, this was removed. The NYT later introduced its own Wordle archive, exclusive to NYT Games subscribers.
Is Wordle Getting Harder?
Though some puzzles may feel trickier, Wordle’s difficulty hasn’t changed since its inception. If you’re craving a bigger challenge, you can activate Hard Mode, which enforces stricter gameplay rules.
