I haven’t played it. But saw Dan Abramov’s thumbnail appear on my feed in youtube.

All right, let’s what this game is about.

There’s different language versions popping up left and right.

So, if you want harder difficulty level try another language! :smiley:

For example:

We have http://wørdle.dk/ in Danish.

It’s like the 2048 craze all over again. It’s a nice, small project that you can implement to learn about a new programming language.

I resisted for a while, then tried it. Very nice quick little game. I could easily see myself wasting a lot of time on it if it weren’t one word per day.

We devs can sort of “cheat”, even without looking at the code. Five words: grep /usr/share/dict/words (or wherever the “English word list” resides on your system). I try to do it without that, but it’s helped me get unstuck a couple times. If I grok in fullness, its word list is smaller, like 1200 or so, so you could even grab that (apparently it’s in plaintext in the JS) and grep against that.

There’s another way to cheat - just open the game in a private browser window and keep doing that for however many guesses you need :lol:

At first I didn’t give it much attention, but I have to admit that I get used to play it every day xD
I’ve learned quite a few new words so far xD

It’s a game that my entire family enjoys playing together, and it’s sort of like a competition, but there are resources online that we can use as hints or cheats for it.
