Are you into sums? Nerdle is for you.

nerdlegame.com/

It's similar to Wordle, but with numbers composed into sums.
You can choose an 'easier' mode with 6 squares across instead of 8. Best of luck smile

There is a Wurdle thread, where you can post and share your success. ⭐

So near and yet so far! How frustrating!

Not for that child, Miis Cornforth, she is a special case! ?

Cheeky wee besom. Detention again for you!

Where is your work, so that I can check it and scribble all over it with a red pen!!!!!!!

Green pen, surely Miss?

It wasnt until line 6 that I realised it was impossible to solve with just one calculation. I thought only one was allowed. (ifkwim) It was fun.

Thank you Molly, that’s great.
I just wouldn’t have thought to use so many ‘small’ numbers.
I’ve got a lot to learn!
There are so many permutations, it’s nowhere near as straightforward at Wordle.

Mollygo Thu 03-Feb-22 05:34:24

This was my work out yesterday.

FannyCornforth Thu 03-Feb-22 05:19:19

‘Morning all! smile

Please can someone share a worked answer for yesterday’s (ie Wednesday 2nd) Nerdle? Thank you

I couldn’t get my head around at all.
I got onto my fourth line, but then didn’t continue as I had to take the dog for an emergency appointment at the vet sad and other life stuff.

I know that I wouldn’t have been able to do it anyway.

NB if you don’t submit a final answer, it doesn’t go onto your stats as a fail.

Thank you nadadeturbe for your kind offer of a ‘very small clue’!

That was quite hard, but I'm beginning to get the hang of it.

? in five and it was the easy one. Oh dear !

Doodle Wed 02-Feb-22 22:21:15

Well my Wordle was hopeless today. Only got it in the 6th go
BUT …I did the big Nerdle in 3 goes. ?

I’m getting the hang of it now.

Mollygo Wed 02-Feb-22 16:51:01

SueDoku I did the same with some FB friends who kept sending me photos of their take-away meals. It seemed to be a competition. No Wordle/Nerdlers yet. I do like that we do it on here. Who else can we celebrate with, or get commiseration from??

SueDoku Wed 02-Feb-22 14:43:21

Let's put it like this - I'm seriously considering defriending all those on FB who insist on posting their
Wordle every day... ? I like doing Sudoku (hence my name) but I don't feel the need to post that day's puzzle on my page every morning...!!
If you enjoy it, do it - but why would you think that I'd be interested in knowing how clever you are every single day..?? ?

The ? at the top gives the instructions.

I found it easier to start with the mini nurdle you'll find that by clicking on the options wheel that is on the far right.

For mini nurdle you have to find all the digits and operations that fill 6 squares and make something like: 9+6=15 or 16/8=2 or 3*7=21 The / is divide and the * is multiply

The instructions explain the different colours.

Good luck in getting a row of green squares.

CountryMouse22 Wed 02-Feb-22 12:34:56

I'm not bad at Sudoku but I just don't understand this!

Maggiemaybe Wed 02-Feb-22 10:57:40

Yes, I’m seeing the coloured squares on my iPhone as well.

FarNorth Wed 02-Feb-22 10:53:18

Differing systems, then. Oh well.
I often think how astonishing all this stuff is, to work at all.

Marydoll Wed 02-Feb-22 10:25:47

I'm seeing coloured squares on all posts, apart from yours, Far North. PC and tablet

muse Wed 02-Feb-22 10:25:33

Nearly 20 mins to solve today’s. Made an error in 2nd line? and used a red number in same place again.

When I press SHARE My iPhone gives me a variety of ways to to send it: by email or message, WhatsApp and more. Also to choose who I send it to. I share with my DD every day through WhatsApp. I used to email it to myself but now, for me, screenshots are the easiest way to save straight to my photos . I screenshoot the answers too and send these to my DD later on so we can see how we did it.

FarNorth Wed 02-Feb-22 10:18:23

Here's what I see.

FarNorth Wed 02-Feb-22 10:17:08

I've used a cropped screenshot because I only get a bunch of X's doing it the other way - and I don't see coloured squares for the ones others are posting here.
Are you all seeing coloured squares in those posts?
