@Frindis When I looked at your puzzle yesterday, I mistook it for being yesterday's puzzle instead of the day before. I can't even remember now, but given the answer to the puzzle and which letters you got right in line one, the only word it could have been was "equip" (if I'm remembering correctly), and I just thought that was a crazy word to use in line 1 🙂 But then I realized I was looking at a puzzle from the day before.

Put it this way: it's gonna take you more than 6 guesses. Maybe a lot more.

Skill issue.

I don't know exactly what I'm doing here. I mean, I understand how it works, but I don't have a coherent strategy yet. Also, I have to move on with my life now, so I didn't play a real game yet, but here's a screenshot of the practice game I played (no share button on practice games):

I used a 5 letter word finder for this one because I got stuck, but it isn't nearly as useful when you don't know which letters are actually in the word.

Just mark me down as a fail every day. I can name 2 soccer players, Pele and Messi.

I tried Absurdle

Absurdle

Absurdle is a new game like Wordle with a unique twist. In contrast to Wordle, Absurdle game lets you make as many random guesses as you like

absurdle.online

After every guess, it changes the word to the hardest to guess word (combination of your letters that has the most possibilities. I didn't see any way to copy my results.

One thing that makes Wordle stand out is that the list of 5 letters words is curated. In absurdle, my answer was "booby", which I don't think you'll come across in wordle 🤣
