What Is Wordle?

Wordle is the internet’s favorite five letter puzzle. You get six guesses to figure out the word of the day. Every time you guess, the game tells you which letters are right and in the right place (green), which letters are in the word but in the wrong spot (yellow), and which ones don’t belong at all (gray).

It resets daily at midnight local time and is free to play on the New York Times website and app. If you log in, you can track your stats and keep your streak going.
