First time playing and it took me 5 tries. I didn’t initially realize that green meant the letter remains in the same spot.

It took me all the spots today! Too many similar words Yep, similar and rhyming words and my inate ability in picking the wrong word(s) first is often my downfall. On another site (hello words ?) for instance the word was SMACK. My three guesses before getting it at last chance: SLACK SNACK SHACK then correctly, SMACK. So 4 of 6 tries for one letter/rhyming word.

I got it on the second word! I do wish it was more than once a day as I can see me not remembering to play.

Liking the game but forgetting to play. Got it on 4th try. Was actually shocked got this one in 4, luckily stumbled onto the right letters when all I had was the I in the wrong place on the first guess.

I wonder if there's anything else similar in the app store? I'm going to check in a minute. This morning I ran across this article - 6 Games to Kill Time Between Rounds. I haven't checked out the games yet, but the one by the creators of Exploding Kittens has piqued my interest. I FOUND SOMETHING LIKE WORDLE but you can play as many games as you want - and choose how many letters in the word game! It's in the link **GypsyGirl** shared above, This one’s easy to describe. hello wordl is a remake of Wordle, and has the same rules: You have six tries to guess the word, slowly deducing what it is from the given clues. The major difference here is that hello wordl lets you play as many times per day as you want, and you can play with words ranging from four letters to 11.
hello wordl is free in browsers.

Hello-wordl is the same but you can change the number of letters in the word and play as many times as you want. foldr.moe/hello-wordl/

As with Hit and Blow/Mastermind the real key IMO is often the first guess. A good/lucky one makes it oh, so much easier. My DS and I were playing Hit and Blow on the Switch (where you take turns with guesses) DS has who goes first on random but always hopes I have to go first because I been lucky in making the initial guess. We've rarely failed that way. Other than first play, DS is much better at it than me with the way his brain works. and the age of said brain. Less clutter, more agile. LOL

I tried it and found it irritating. But it’s because although I have a good vocabulary, I stink at puzzles. I have no patience. I prefer faster moving word games like Boggle or one with less options like wordscapes.

After a couple of false starts - i.e. not reading the instructions thoroughly, I got it in 4. Now that I understand how it's done, I might give it another try!

Got today's in 3. I'm still enjoying doing this little word puzzle every day.

That's really good. I needed 5. Do people always use the same 1-2-3 first words? I usually use the same first two - to knock out all the vowels and a few common letters.

I got got yesterday’s in 3 and today’s in 4. I’m honestly shocked because word games are not my thing. I do enjoy the logic aspect of it though.

So I’ll just ignore the suggestion of a similar game . . . I showed to to Dh about 9:30 last night and he didn't come to be until nearly 11 and that was only because I got up and told him it was time to stop playing - ha, ha. He found a knock off version.
