[Wordle](https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html) has become a thing this past year, so naturally other similar games pop up across the internet. What interesting -ordles do you play? My daily list: [Beadle](https://beadle.gg/) (guess the Beatle song from a short snippet) [Crosswordle](https://crosswordle.vercel.app/?daily=1) (you’re given the final wordle word plus a series of blank lines with green and yellow squares that you have to fill in; it’s basically Wordle going backwards) [Antiwordle](https://www.antiwordle.com/) (take as many guesses as you can to guess the Wordle word; my record is 11!) [Globle](https://globle-game.com/) (guess the mystery country, after each guess, the computer gives you how many miles away you are) [Nerdle](https://nerdlegame.com/) (fill in the blanks to guess the math equation) And finally, [Waffle](https://wafflegame.net/) (swap letters in a grid to solve the six scrambled words, in 15 swaps or less) Anyone else playing any of these? Got any other interesting ones? ---

I’ve tried a bunch and kept with some of them for a while, but the only ones that have stuck are wordle and waffle. I liked a couple of map ones, but got fed up with pacific island nations and stopped playing. ---

Heardle.app, it’s name that tune. Play it every day. Genres vary a lot, so some days, it’s a total piece of cake, others I’ve never heard of the artist or the song, and everything in between. Oh, also duotrigordle – solve 32 wordles at once. ---

[Byrdle](https://www.byrdle.net/) - choral music-themed game. Includes musical terms, names (usually composers), and words in Latin and other languages that feature prominently in choral music. ---

> [@RitterSport](#): > > Oh, also duotrigordle – solve 32 wordles at once. I usually play [Quordle](https://www.quordle.com/) - four words at a time is enough. But there’s also [Dordle](https://dordle.io/) (two words), [Octordle](https://octordle.com/) (8 words, plus some fun variants), [Sedecordle](https://www.sedecordle.com/) (16 words), [Sexaginta-quattordle](https://64ordle.au/) (64 words, which is just getting silly) and then - what the hell - [Kilordle](https://jonesnxt.github.io/kilordle/) with 1000 words. ---

WARdle is fun if your a big baseball fan. Although MLB bought it and calls it MLB pickle now. [https://mlbpickle.com/](https://mlbpickle.com/) Basically you pick a player and it tells you if you got position, team, league, division, handedness, country of origin right to help you narrow it down. ---

I played [Mathler](https://www.mathler.com/) for a while. It was fun at first, but I got bored with it. Then my sister gifted me a subscription to Spelling Bee by the NY Times, which includes several other games. Now that’s what I do for the first 90 minutes of my day. ---

[https://gordle.com/](https://gordle.com/) – A hockey version of Wordle. (Oh, and you’re not restricted to 5 letter words. I don’t know if they changed that with Wordle or other games, but they did there) And then, of course, you have [https://sweardle.glitch.me/](https://sweardle.glitch.me/) . That would be the um, “four-letter word” version. (The cool thing about this one is you can play all day if you want) ---

I do redactle and [squaredle.app](https://squaredle.app) (basically a Boggle board where you have to find every word) most days, in addition to Wordle. Sedecordle (16 words) and Sedecorder (16 words, but you have to work on them in order) usually make the rotation. ---

I play Waffle almost daily. Currently at 453 stars out of 103 games. A bunch of those sub-5 games were early on, though, and lately I almost always get 5 stars. I suppose it’s getting too easy, but it still requires decent logical deduction (more than Wordle, at any rate). ---

In the end I’m playing two online movie puzzles every day, Framed (a series of movie stills, going from obscure to obvious) and Actorle (movie titles with letters replaced by X’s, + year and IMDb score…quite fun). The rest has gone like tears in the rain. ---

I play Wordle, Quordle, and three of the games in the Word Hurdle suite: 5-letter, 6-letter, and Phrazle (guess a different phrase every day). Oddly, the NYT version of Wordle wouldn’t load for me today. Same with Quordle (unless maybe I did them before I went to work, and the Word Hurdle suite refreshes twice a day). ---

Yep. I proudly do Worldle using a globe and Google maps as a learning experience. My old globe has the USSR on it, so Google maps is necessary for eastern European and Asian nations (I didn’t know Kazakhstan is the fourth largest country by area in Asia). ---
