Thankfully, Newsweek is here to provide a guide full of hints and tips to ensure you keep that streak going and maintain the bragging rights of a 100 percent completion rate.
Wordle requires players to solve a puzzle by guessing a mysterious five-letter word in six tries or fewer.
The game refreshes each day, with a new word needing to be worked out using color-coded clues.
A green tile indicates the letter is in the correct position, while a yellow tile means the letter is in the word but in the wrong place. A gray tile means the letter is not in the word at all.
While everyone has their own techniques to solving the problem, some days the same sure-thing strategy you have stood by could result in you failing the addicting daily puzzle.
For instance, trying to find the right vowels may prove less beneficial for a consonant-heavy word like “Fuzzy.”
The game’s own developer, Josh Wardle, likes to spend his first few tries eliminating as much of the alphabet as he can.
Wardle created Wordle in conjunction with his partner Palak Shah.
The pair began working on Wordle in 2013 and later returned to the project in their spare time while the world was in lockdown during the pandemic.
In October 2021, Wardle released the game to the public, and Wordle soon became a smash hit the world over.
