Wordle - A daily word game

[simonw]

Started to play yesterday and got it in 4.

 

Today on the 4th row I have 4 correctly placed letters, but my remaining letters don't make a word in the dictionary??

Which 4 letters do you have? (positions only, as letters would be spoilers. )

OK. It's 'gettable' from there. Do something else for a while. I am sure it'll come to you if you let your subconscious work on it for a while. It often works for me when I get stuck.

White on white for hint...

That hidden hint appears in plain text in my E-Mail notification.

I must be playing a different game as my letters don't conclude to your clue, thank you though.

Odd! The clue matches the solution for today.

I was playing via the app on mobile. Are the words different to a browser game on a daily basis?

[jthompson]

There's no mobile app, only the web version.

Ah, I've just looked at the app I have "Wordle - Daily Word Puzzle" and its 'In development' and 'Early Access'.

If people like the idea of good, simple puzzle games without any ads, trackers or IAP BS, I can heartily recommend Simon Tatham's Puzzles. There are some absolute gems in there. Available in all good app stores and on the web.

I managed the same, but a bit annoying for two reasons.

Reason one, this was go one http://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji834.pnghttp://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji834.png🟩🟩🟩

 

Reason two - my twelve year old son did it in three!

[6Foot2]

It took me all 6 guesses today.

That looks distinctly Heath Robinson-esque. I can't quite follow all of those threads!!
