If you’re enthusiastic about daily word challenges like Wordle, there’s another entertaining addition you might consider for your daily routine: Hurdle.

Hurdle is a five-stage word game that leverages your earlier guesses to assist you in solving each subsequent puzzle. In the initial stage, you guess a five-letter word, and the game provides feedback on which letters are correct, misplaced, or incorrect—similar to Wordle. Once you guess the first word correctly, that answer serves as your starting point for the following stage. This process continues through five stages, with each correct word contributing to the next.

When you arrive at the final hurdle, all of your prior correct guesses come into play to help you figure out the last word. However, remember that just because a letter was highlighted in previous stages, it doesn’t guarantee it appears the same number of times in the ultimate word.
