Avoid guessing the hidden word in as many tries as possible. Sounds easy, but there’s a catch!

  • If you guess a letter that’s not in the word, it’s grayed out and you can’t use it again.
  • If you guess a letter that is in the word, it turns yellow and you must include it.
  • If you guess a letter in the exact position, it turns red and is locked in place.
  • There’s a new game every day!

    Dammit, I wasted one letter after I found a good root to vary upon, by not inputting a very common word with a double letter first.

    Spoiler

    I inputted ‘blond’ instead of ‘blood’…

      I’ve given up on the yellow for the red 😄

      I thought that one could win if we didn’t uncover the word in 8 guesses, but it looks like it just goes on, and one should should just aim for the highest score, there is no ‘win’.

        btw, have you thought of adding a hash fragment at the end of the urls? E.g. this one would be https://www.antiwordle.com/#1147

        It won’t let people access the correct puzzle, but it will stop Lemmy from thinking that the posts are duplicates/crossposts.

          Oh yes, good idea. I did this when sharing Wordles at the beginning of this community and it worked well. I’ll keep it in mind to add it to my future posts.

    Yellows are really strong, because you can just keep using them in yellow or grey spots as long as you can find words. Is it possible to reuse the same word over and over? Assuming you find a word without dead letters of course.

      oh, I made it harder for myself by never reusing a yellow spot - I’m making up my own rules

    Interesting game. I caught a bit of bad luck by locking in the first and last letter at the same time.
