If you enjoy daily word challenges such as Wordle, then Hurdle is a wonderful addition to your puzzle activities.

Hurdle consists of five rounds. During the initial round, you’ll attempt to guess the word, with each attempt indicating which letters are accurate, misplaced, or incorrect. After you uncover the first word, you progress to the subsequent hurdle. The catch? Your correct response from the prior round becomes your initial guess in the next, which may provide useful hints—or not—based on the word.

In the last round, all your earlier correct responses are utilized as guesses. You’ll be able to see which letters are right or misplaced, aiding you in completing the final word. Just remember: the frequency with which a letter is highlighted in previous guesses doesn’t necessarily correspond to the number of times it shows up in the final word.
