What is the origin of Wordle?
Developed by engineer Josh Wardle as a present for his partner, Wordle swiftly became a global phenomenon, with thousands participating each day. Enthusiasts created alternative versions of Wordle, including the battle royale Squabble, the music guessing game Heardle, and variants like Dordle and Quordle that require guessing multiple words simultaneously.
Wordle gained such immense popularity that it was acquired by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even stream themselves playing.
