What is Wordle and How to Play
Brief Explanation of Wordle and Its Popularity
Wordle is a popular daily word puzzle game where players have six attempts to guess a hidden 5-letter word. Each guess provides feedback in the form of color-coded tiles that indicate how close your guess was to the target word.
Rules of the Game
- Guess a 5-Letter Word: You have six tries to guess the correct word.
- Color-Coded Feedback System:
- Green: The letter is in the word and in the correct position.
- Yellow: The letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
- Gray: The letter is not in the word.
Tips for Beginners on How to Approach the Game
- Start with Common Words: Use common 5-letter words to maximize the information from your initial guesses.
