What is Wordle?
If you read this far, you already know how to play. You have six chances to guess a five-letter word, and the game gives you feedback on whether the letters you guessed are in the puzzle or not, and if they’re in the same place you guessed they are. The New York Times bought the game from creator Josh Wardle for seven figures by 2022. Wardle created the famous game for his partner and let him whittle the 12,000 five-letter English words down to just 2,500, creating the answer database. It was also convenient that it had a name that plays on “word”.
A Times spokesman told me it includes the first Wordle that appeared on June 19, 2021, and the newspaper celebrated the game’s 1,000th word on March 15. Spoiler: That word number 1,000 was ERUPT. As in, “Dad will explode if Wordle is so hard he loses his streak.”
