Games like Wordle
The most recent word game that rose to popularity is Wordle, available on The New York Times website. Every day, you get to guess a word in six tries using the game’s color indicators as hints: green means you guessed the correct letter, while yellow means the letter is in the word, only misplaced. Wordle was quick to spread on social media as players would post their results as colored squares. Below are some mobile games like Wordle.
