I usually do duotrigordle (32 puzzles), but this was fun to try.

Too bad we can’t put a screenshot behind a spoiler here. It’s not all that interesting to see people’s scores without being able to see how they got there.

There is a 1000 words one but it’s just tedious, frankly.

I bet you could hide a screenshot in a details box. Less elegant would be to figure out how to force a true link instead of embedding it.

Looks like if I remove the details box it’ll embed the image, but with the details box it only works as a link. Same deal with blur spoiler.

Yep, I tried too, unfortunately they only work for text and it’s too much to type out, but that may be the only option.

Solving quordle is a little different than wordle, but I actually find quordle to be easier once you get the hang of it.

Huh. This was interesting! Not really more difficult than Wordle per se but definitely more complex.

Part of the charm of Wordle for me is that it isn’t all that difficult and doesn’t take a significant amount of time to solve. Mr. Legend, unlike me, isn’t a puzzle person (he’s an electronics engineer, so he probably gets his fill during the workday), but he does the Wordle daily and then we compare them at night. This one takes enough more time that I suspect I’ll be doing them alone.

I’ve played this before, but it’s been a long time. I play Sedecordle now and again and thought it worked the same way, but it doesn’t…I forgot that you have to put the whole word in each block to solve it, whereas with Sedecordle, if you hit the right letters in green, no matter which turn, it solves the words as you go along, if that makes sense. So, I thought I had Marry solved when I put Minor in to check the I, O, N for the other words and hit that M in the first spot (I already had the ARRY in green, in other words).

Octordle is the one I play. My first few words are aiming to put all the vowels out there for the daily game. The sequence game is solved one game board at a time and it gets easier as you move through the boards.

</div>

If you can play four words without a single repeating letter then all Wordle variants become trivial. I used:

BATHS  
CRIME  
PUDGY  
FLOWN

I quite like Antiwordle these days. It’s like Wordle, but the aim is to go as long as you can _without_ getting the answer. It’s tougher than it sounds. My record is 14 turns.
