Play and guess a word a day
Do you keep seeing sequences of little yellow and green squares in hundreds of tweets and you still do not know what it is? Well, in addition to the fact that you are completely off the wagon, you are missing out on a very interesting word game that will only take up a few minutes of your day.
We are talking about Wordle, an online word game created by Josh Wardle that also has a Spanish version adapted by Daniel Rodriguez, in case you want to practice this language, and the best thing is that it is played directly from the browser. What is really curious about this game is that you will not be able to waste time for hours to play: you can only try to guess a single word per day, the same for its millions of players.
How to play Wordle?
It is very simple. When you open the website, you will find a grid of six rows and five columns and a keyboard. The game goal is to fill in the grid with five-letter words and get the correct one right in a maximum of six tries. To help you, you must keep in mind that after entering the first word, the letters that are not in the correct word will appear in gray, those that are in the correct word in yellow, but in another position, and those that are correct and are already in place in green.
There is no time limit to avoid unnecessary pressure, and the incorrect letters you use will be deactivated on the keyboard so that you cannot use them again. If you guess the word, you will have the option to share the result on Twitter or other networks, and, yes, the result will appear as the resulting graph, so as you can see, this is where the little yellow and green squares that invade the network come from.
