Have you heard of Heardle?

For music lovers.
You listen to a very short intro clip, and can add extra time until you get the song.

I have had a go tonight, and got it in 16 seconds.

That was just practice, though.

I think it might become a new addiction.

(I also tried out Lewdle and got that in 4. blush

Have you seen Worldle? You are given the outline of a country and have to question what it is. You are given hints after each guess, eg. how far away you are with a direction arrow and distance in kilometres. It's quite fun. I have only guessed the correct country once.

You have to guess what it is. I haven't a clue where question came from.

I would be absolutely useless at that. blush
I'm really useless at knowing what is where on a map.

Mind you, I did today's heardle and hadn't even heard of the song, ever.
I thought it was going to be easy for me. smile

Just tried it. No idea what the song or artist was but I have heard of the artist.

I do Quordle most days. I've just started Semantle which makes me never want to give up. Good thing you are allowed endless tries.
semantle.novalis.org/ Got today's in 87.

I'd be useless at the map one.

Oh dear, I’d better keep off these. I’ve just tried Semantle and it took me ages, and 106 goes. I’d never even heard of the Heardle one, then couldn’t stop it playing. grin

I’ve probably enough on anyway with the English, French and German Wordles, Quordle and Nerdle. And Latin Wordle, where I really just make words up till they’re accepted (so much for the O level).

I’m a bit fascinated by Worldle, but I haven’t got closer than 5000 km away yet. It helps if you’ve heard of the country.

There use to be a geography one on the BBC site. Haven't played it for years, but I have just found it again

Sometimes I am really close but sometimes I am on the wrong Continent!
