Wordle is now hosted on the New York Times website, following a seven-figure acquisition earlier this year after the puzzle game went from an intimate experience to a worldwide phenomenon.
When Wordle launched in October 2021, the game only had several dozen players who took part daily. Now, the puzzle game regularly attracts more than a million visitors each day.
Wordle’s incredible growth is plotted in the Statista graphic below.
Given Wordle’s enormous success, new players may feel intimidated by joining its rapidly-growing player base but the rules are quite simple to follow.
Those wanting to try their hand at Wordle can play the game by guessing the five-letter word in six tries. Each guess must be a valid word before it can be accepted.
After each guess, the color on the tiles will show you how close you’ve come to correctly find the word.
A green tile means the letter is correct and in the right place, yellow indicates the letter is correct but in the wrong place, while gray tells the play the letter is not in the word.
