A Brief Wordle History

Wordle was first developed by software engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner. It rapidly became a worldwide phenomenon, with players globally logging in each day to guess the five-letter word. Its success spurred a multitude of spin-offs, including:

– Squabble: A battle royale version of Wordle
– Heardle: A music guessing game
– Dordle and Quordle: Formats where you guess multiple words at the same time

Ultimately, Wordle was purchased by The New York Times, and it even turned into a popular livestream topic among TikTok users.

What’s the Best Initial Word?

There isn’t a universal answer, but if you want to be tactical, consider starting with a word that contains at least two different vowels and frequent consonants like S, T, R, or N. Need assistance picking one? We have some excellent starting word suggestions.

What Happened to the Wordle Archive?

There was once a public archive of previous Wordle puzzles, but it was removed at The New York Times’ request. However, NYT now provides its own Wordle archive — accessible to Games subscribers.

Is Wordle Becoming More Challenging?

Some days may feel tougher, but Wordle hasn’t actually become harder over time. If you’re seeking more of a challenge, you can always activate Hard Mode in the game settings.
