six tries at getting the word right..... just one word a day...if the letter turns grey it is not in the word..... etc.

5 today, like my school reports, feel "I could do better".

3 again today

4 but should have been 3

Apparently the New York Time has bought Wordle. For the time being it will remain free to play but the NYT is not making comment on whether it will stay free in the future or not.

A puzzle app I use has just introduced a puzzle just like Wordle. Seems it’s catching on everywhere.

The New York Times has bought Wordle from Josh Wardle for ‘a seven figure sum’.
It won’t be free for very long it seems!

6. Just a guessing game today. Had 3 letters together in correct place first go.

5.
Despite getting confused with what green and yellow mean, and repeatedly putting things in the same wrong place. ?

4 for both of them today.
It's so odd how my brain struggles to think of any words at all when looking at those squares. confused

4 today.

4 for me. At least I’m a better Wordler than I am a Nerdler, though that’s not saying much (only one success so far on Nerdle, from three attempts)

Tuesday 1st February ? an impressive three today ?.

3. Just tried Nerdle. Interesting.

DillytheGardener Mon 31-Jan-22 21:55:01

I failed today after two days of 3 and 5. Must have been beginners luck ?

Started playing yesterday after reading this tread, I love it.
First game got it in six, but amazed myself today - got it in two, wordle is not as time consuming as sudoku and crosswords although I still do them.

Yikes, that’s a number game. I can’t even do Soduku so I’ll stick with Daily and unlimited Wordle

? FarNorth has started a Nerdle thread ?.

Delighted for you Grannynannywanny! ?

DanniRae Mon 31-Jan-22 12:18:30

Did it in 6!

Jaxjacky Mon 31-Jan-22 10:47:02

I just Google WORDLE uk Patsy.

Doodle Mon 31-Jan-22 10:44:10

Patsy I can do Wordle on my iPad. Perhaps try lemsips link again. That’s where I got it from.
3 for me today.

Bellanonna Mon 31-Jan-22 10:27:56

How weird Patsy70. I just hit the link provided by lemsip on my iPad and I get the grid.

Bellanonna Mon 31-Jan-22 10:25:44

My first time getting it in 2. The first and last letters showed up in green so that helped a lot.
FannyC I have often put the same wrong letter in the same wrong place (I play the unlimited version too. Wish I hadn’t discovered it as it’s really addictive).

Patsy70 Mon 31-Jan-22 10:12:21

For some reason when I try to do Wordle on my iPad, the screen shows this, and I can’t get the Wordle grid - tried everything, turning off etc. So I’m using my iphone instead! Has anyone else experienced this? ?

Callistemon21 Mon 31-Jan-22 10:11:39

Three today, impressive ?

You must be telepathic, Grannynannywanny
Yes, definitely try the lottery with the first numbers that come into your head
