How to Play Wordle?
You get six chances to guess a five-letter word and colored tiles help you. If the tile turns gray, then it means that the letter you chose does not feature in the word at all. If the chosen letter's box turns yellow, then it entails that you have guessed the correct letter, but its placement is incorrect. If the tile turns green, then it means that you have guessed the correct letter in the apt spot.

History of the Game
The game was designed by a Welsh developer, Josh Wardle, as an activity for him and his partner to enjoy.

Later, The New York Times bought it for an undisclosed seven digit figure in January 2022.
