A Brief Wordle Background
Wordle was initially developed by software engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner. It quickly became a worldwide phenomenon, with millions participating daily. Fans have since produced numerous spin-offs, including:
– Squabble: a battle royale-style Wordle
– Heardle: a music guessing challenge
– Dordle and Quordle: where you guess multiple words simultaneously
Eventually, the New York Times took over Wordle, and it’s even evolved into a trendy livestream activity on TikTok.
What’s the Top Wordle Starting Word?
The ideal starting word is one that suits you — but if you seek a strategic advantage, select a word that contains at least two different vowels along with common consonants like S, T, R, or N. Need assistance in choosing one? We’ve got some excellent recommendations.
What Happened to the Wordle Archive?
There used to be an open archive of previous Wordle puzzles, but it was removed at the behest of the New York Times. However, NYT Games subscribers can now find an official Wordle archive on the Times’ own site.
Is Wordle Becoming More Difficult?
It might seem that way, but Wordle has not genuinely become harder. If you’re in search of a tougher experience, you can enable Hard Mode in the game’s settings.
