What’s the origin of Wordle?
Initially crafted by engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner, Wordle quickly gained traction to become a worldwide sensation, with countless individuals around the world participating daily. Fan-created alternate versions of Wordle also appeared, including the battle royale Squabble, the music recognition game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that require guessing multiple words simultaneously.
Wordle ultimately gained such immense popularity that it was acquired by the New York Times, with TikTok creators even streaming their gameplay.
