A Brief Wordle History

Wordle was initially created by software engineer Josh Wardle as a surprise for his partner. It swiftly gained traction, turning into a daily habit for enthusiasts worldwide. Fans even devised their own adaptations, such as:

– Squabble: A competitive edition
– Heardle: A music guessing challenge
– Dordle and Quordle: Versions that require you to guess multiple words simultaneously

Ultimately, The New York Times acquired Wordle, and it’s now included in their collection of games. It has even found popularity on TikTok, where users livestream their daily attempts.

What’s the Ideal Starting Word?

The perfect starting word is one that resonates with you—but if you want to be tactical, consider using a word that has at least two different vowels alongside common consonants like S, T, R, or N. Need some guidance on picking one? We’ve got recommendations to help you begin.

What Happened to the Wordle Archive?

There was once a fan-created archive of all previous Wordle puzzles, but it has been removed at the behest of The New York Times. However, NYT now provides its own official Wordle archive, accessible to Games subscribers.

Is Wordle Becoming More Challenging?

It might seem like it, but Wordle isn’t actually tougher than when it first debuted. If you’re seeking a greater challenge, try turning on Hard Mode in the game settings.
