A Brief History of Wordle

Wordle was initially developed by software engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner. It quickly gained popularity, captivating players around the globe. Since then, it has led to numerous spin-offs, such as:

– Squabble: a competitive version
– Heardle: a music guessing challenge
– Dordle and Quordle: where you guess multiple words simultaneously

Eventually, The New York Times acquired Wordle, and it even made its way to TikTok, where content creators livestream their daily attempts.

What’s the Optimal Wordle Starting Word?

The optimal starting word is one that features a blend of common vowels and consonants. Consider words that contain at least two different vowels and frequently used consonants like S, T, R, or N. Need assistance in selecting one? We have a guide to the top starting words to get you going.

What Happened to the Wordle Archive?

There used to be a public archive of previous Wordle puzzles, but it was removed at the request of The New York Times. Nevertheless, NYT Games subscribers now have access to an official Wordle archive on the Times’ website.

Is Wordle Becoming Harder?

It may seem like Wordle is becoming more difficult, but the level of challenge hasn’t changed. If you’re seeking a greater challenge, you can always enable Hard Mode in the game settings.
