Quordle - Wordle's big brother [grin]

My son has introduced me to Quordle - www.quordle.com/#/

Four five-letter words to be solved at the same time, in nine guesses.

I have been in practice mode for about 45 minutes and have managed to work out guess three out of four on one game.

Some of the words (emcee, for example) I'd never have guessed in a month of Sundays.

If Octordle is what I think it is, it sounds horrendous?

muse Mon 28-Mar-22 10:22:16

Best ever quordle. 20

I failed on Quordle, but managed to get Octordle by the skin of my teeth.

Delighted to get it in 8 today! (To get it at all, really)

It’s difficult to explain Quordle, and the instructions don’t really help! Yes, you’re basically playing 4 grids at once, but I find it easier to concentrate on them individually. I usually start by just using a couple of words that contain different letters, then have a look to see if any of the four have enough letters showing as correct to be worth guessing. Sometimes it takes 3 stabs in the dark to take a few more letters out of the equation before looking at each word. It should become clearer when you play it. You’ve got 9 goes to get the 4 words in, so it’s very doable.

Then you can move on to Octordle. smile

I don’t understand it at all

Me neither. I seem to be guessing in all 4 places at once? Is that it?

Today's effort. For first time ever got Wordle in 2.

Bellanonna Thu 24-Mar-22 20:45:05

Comments have been helpful. I clearly didn’t have a system but now I’m doing quite well on my practice attempts.

muse Wed 23-Mar-22 22:40:52

26 today. Missed the last few days.

I do vary the first word but mostly its TRAIN. From there stay with those that have green squares. Got left with one with lots of yellow squares today - so very lucky.

Farmor15 Wed 23-Mar-22 14:40:35

Using my system I nearly always get all words, though need to remember that repeated letters in a word are common and Y may substitute for a vowel

Farmor15 Wed 23-Mar-22 14:37:44

I have a system too - first word is always HOIST. Second word BARED, or another combination of those letters. Between those 2 words I often have 3 or 4 letters in some of the words. If there's H, it may be combined with S, T, or C.
A third word I may use is PLUCK

Bellanonna Wed 23-Mar-22 13:59:55

Ah, thanks kissngate. That sounds like a good idea. I’ll give it a try.

kissngate Wed 23-Mar-22 12:50:30

Bell - I usually use all the vowels in the first two words ie arise / tough. Then regardless of where the vowels are I use as many unused letters as I can in the next word trying to link in with a vowel in the correct position. This usually gives me a good idea of some words. Hope it helps.

Bellanonna Wed 23-Mar-22 10:55:23

Does anyone have a method they stick with? I try to work out the word in one grid at a time and just concentrate on that. I’ve got all 4 just a handful of times, usually 2, or 3 if I’m lucky.
