A Brief Wordle History

Wordle was initially designed by software developer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner. It swiftly became a worldwide phenomenon, attracting millions of daily players. Fans have since spawned countless variations, including:

– Squabble: A battle royale take on Wordle
– Heardle: A music identification game
– Dordle and Quordle: Versions where you guess multiple words simultaneously

Eventually, The New York Times took over Wordle, leading to a trend of TikTok users broadcasting their daily attempts.

What’s the Optimal Starting Word?

There isn’t a universal answer, but if you’re looking for a strategic entry, opt for a word with at least two distinct vowels and commonly used consonants like S, T, R, or N. Seeking inspiration? We’ve compiled some of the finest starting words to assist you.

What Became of the Wordle Archive?

At first, a fan-created archive allowed players to revisit past puzzles. However, it was removed at The New York Times’ request. Nevertheless, NYT now provides its own Wordle Archive—accessible to Games subscribers.

Is Wordle Becoming Harder?

It might feel more challenging on certain days, but Wordle hasn’t actually become harder. If you’re up for a challenge, consider activating Hard Mode in the game’s settings.
