What's the Wordle?!

    So, who is playing this awesome game? I just discovered it this week. 4 for 4 so far. This is what it looks like...

    It's a daily word game, you guess the five letter word in 6 tries. Everyone in the world gets the same word and it is just one a day. I think that is the best part because people have to stop at just one electronic stimulation. Something new to many, I would assume. You can post your daily game to show how many tries you needed and it only shows the blocks. It also has an incredibly simple page. Nothing flashy. The only negative I see is if everyone in my facebook feed posts their results everyday, that would get old after a while. So type wordle in your browser and enjoy!

    I’ve been playing a few weeks (24 game today). Fun 3 minute distraction while having my coffee. Not posting my results on Twitter like every political/sports/entertainment journalist or on Facebook like everyone over the age of 45 is apparently required to do.

    Have solved it every day within 6 — got 2 once and 6 once.

    Two guesses today. I guess I find it too easy.

    I got it in two tries today, the first time that's happened. Am 16 for 16 overall, only had to go to six guesses twice. I really enjoy it. It's a nice little five-minute diversion to get the brain going in the morning.

    Great little game, and one a day is perfect. But if you post your score on social media you should be blocked from the game for 48 hours.

    Agree. Good game, lousy culture. The social media bragging is brutal.

    Too easy, I’m 11 for 11.

    They should make a copy editor's edition. One of the letters should be incorrect or transposed.

    It can be made harder, you have to use green letters every time.
