Wordle enthusiasts are always on the lookout for a little assistance, especially when faced with challenging puzzles. The popular word game, which provides players with six attempts to guess a five-letter word, continues to capture the attention of fans since its launch in 2021 by software engineer Josh Wardle. Following its remarkable success, it was acquired by The New York Times in 2022.
Players can kick off their Wordle experience with any starter word they prefer. As players make their guesses, feedback is provided: blocks turn green for correct letters in the right positions, yellow for correct letters in the wrong positions, and gray for letters that are not part of the target word.
Tracy Bennett, the Wordle editor at The New York Times, shared insights in a 2023 interview, stating that no word is inherently a bad choice for starting. After examining 515 million games played, the Wordlebot recommended “trace” as an excellent starter option.
While anyone can enjoy Wordle for free, those wishing to keep track of their statistics or gain deeper insights into their gameplay will need a New York Times Games subscription or a full New York Times subscription.
