In Wordle, you guess one word, and you’re given nothing to go on at the start. You have to bring your own starter word: I like ARISE but everybody has their favorites. Green and yellow squares guide you after each guess. Green means you guessed a letter in the right place; yellow letters are in the word somewhere but you have the position wrong.
Skills required: This game rewards people who have spent a lot of time thinking about how words are constructed. If you play a lot of other word games (and are a good speller), you’ll get a lot of enjoyment out of Wordle and will probably be good at it. If you just guess words without much thought or strategy, it's not as rewarding.
Knowledge of which letters are most common in short words, and how words tend to be structured.
Strategically making guesses (probing common letters, not repeating information you already know).
Has an archive of past puzzles: Yes, for subscribers.
Where to find our daily hints: Right here.
Connections
Time commitment: A few minutes. I timed myself and did an easier puzzle in about a minute, a tougher one in about five. The real head-scratchers may, of course, take a bit longer.
Know a lot of vocabulary—sometimes there’s an unusual word.
Be willing to think outside the box, for the occasional strange wordplay.
Frustration factor: High, since there will often be apparent groups thrown in as red herrings. You’d think GUITAR, NECK, and STRINGS go together, but they each belonged to different categories in that day’s puzzle. There are also those strange wordplay categories I mentioned, names that look like dictionary words and vice versa, and other unexpected groupings.
Has a bot that can analyze your guesses and tell you how well you did: Yes, for subscribers.
Strands
Strands is a word search game with some cute mechanics. The words are all on a theme, and there’s an “aha” moment that will (ideally) make you chuckle and/or kick yourself, and there are free hints when you’re stuck.
Skills required: The hints make this a much easier game than it would be otherwise. If you find three words that are real dictionary words, but aren’t the words you’re supposed to find, you get a free hint. You can use the hint anytime you want, and it will outline the letters in one of the theme words—but it’s still up to you to put the letters in order.
Recognize words when their letters are out of order.
Figure out what the theme, spangram, and words have to do with each other. There’s often a tricky connection, and recognizing it makes the game a lot easier.
Frustration factor: Low, usually. Sometimes you’ll end up with a clump of letters, know that they must make a word, but have no idea how to combine the letters. This is especially problematic if you simply don’t know the word or phrase. There’s nothing to do at that point but swipe your finger in random directions until something takes.
Has a bot that can analyze your guesses and tell you how well you did: No.
Where to find our daily hints: Right here.
