A Brief History of Wordle

Wordle was developed by software engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner, and it quickly became a worldwide phenomenon. The straightforward yet captivating word game spawned countless variations, including:

– Squabble: A competitive version
– Heardle: A music guessing game
– Dordle and Quordle: Variants that challenge you to guess multiple words simultaneously

Eventually, Wordle was purchased by The New York Times, and it even found its place on TikTok, where players share their daily attempts via livestream.

What’s the Best Wordle Starting Word?

While the ideal starting word depends on individual taste, strategic players often select words with a combination of common consonants (like S, T, R, N) and at least two different vowels. Need assistance choosing one? We’ve got a list of excellent starting words to enhance your chances.

What Happened to the Wordle Archive?

There used to be a public collection of all previous Wordle puzzles, but it was removed at the request of The New York Times. Nevertheless, NYT now offers its own Wordle Archive—exclusively for Games subscribers.

Is Wordle Getting Harder?

It may seem more challenging on certain days, but Wordle hasn’t actually become more difficult. However, if you’re seeking a greater challenge, you can always activate Hard Mode in the game’s settings.
