Wordle

Here is an excerpt from Wordle's description on the game's official website:

Wordle is a daily word game where players have six attempts to guess a five letter word. Feedback for each guess is given in the form of colored tiles to indicate if letters match the correct position. Daily words are curated by editors using the Oxford Dictionary.

• Each guess must be a valid five-letter word.
• The color of a tile will change to show you how close your guess was.
• If the tile turns green, the letter is in the word, and it is in the correct spot.
• If the tile turns yellow, the letter is in the word, but it is not in the correct spot.
• If the tile turns gray, the letter is not in the word.
• A new puzzle is released each day at midnight.

Solvers do not need a subscription to play the daily Wordle. However, the entire Wordle experience is only available to Games, All Access, and Home Delivery Subscribers.

We recommend creating a New York Times account or logging in with an existing New York Times account so you can play Wordle across devices or platforms while retaining your progress and statistics.

NB: While the earliest Wordle puzzle we could find was published on October 15th, 2021, we could not confirm that it is the date of the very first Wordle puzzle that was published online.
