Thursday! What a concept! And what a day to solve a brand new Wordle. While technically the idea is to figure it out using your own personal brain and/or arcane letter-math, but if you get stuck and start to get nervous about your streak, we've got some tips and hints to nudge you towards the solution.
If you want, you can skip to the very end of this article for the answer to the June 16 Wordle,which is puzzle #362 — or scroll down in a more leisurely fashion for a few tips and strategies to help you every day, as well as similar puzzles to play while you wait for tomorrow's Wordle.
Wordlewas created by former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his puzzle-loving partner, but soon went mega-viral. Thousands of people around the globe now play this game each day, and fans have even created alternatives to Wordleinspired by the original format. This includes music identification game Heardle, Hollywood nerd faves Actorleand Framed, and variations like Dordleand Quordlethat make you guess multiple words at once.
In fact, the word puzzle game has proved so popular that the New York Times eventually bought it, and TikTok creators livestream themselves playing.
Not the day you're after? You'll find the Wordleanswer for June 15 here.
We have some ideas to help you pick the perfect first move (or as close to perfect as you can get without just magically guessing the exact right word). Such tips include choosing a word with at least two different vowels in it, plus a few common consonants such as S, T, R, or N.
SEE ALSO:The best tablets out there for streaming, work, and sketching out designs (or just doing puzzles, but bigger)While you could once play the entire archive of past puzzles, the archive was taken down at the request of the New York Times, according to the site.
If you've been finding Wordletoo easy, there is a Hard Mode you can enable to give yourself more of a challenge. But unless you activate this mode, we can assure you that Wordle isn't getting harder.
The whole point of Wordleis that everyone's solving the same puzzle, with the same answer, no matter where you are in the world. However, occasionally the puzzle game will accept two different correct solutions on the same day, in apparent defiance of Wordlelaw.
This aberration is due to changes the New York Timesbegan making after it acquired Wordleearlier this year. To make sure you're always getting the same puzzle as everyone else, refresh your browser before you play — don't worry, the site will keep your streak.
It's an article of clothing... sort of.
The letter A!
Enough teasing!
We'll tell you the answer now.
Ready?
Today's Wordleanswer is...
