Play the Britannica Octordle instead? https://www.britannica.com/games/octordle/
I saw someone share this earlier today also as another option!
Periodic reminder in light of the #nyt strike that #wordle started life as a free, vanilla javascript website with no DRM and not owned by the nyt, and I packed it into a single html file that you can download and run offline or from any site, like this: https://jon-e.net/wordle.html

If anyone has an alternative for the connections game I really liked that one :)
Connections shits me. I hate how they will put in clear connections but you’re aiming for more obscure ones.
Strands and the Mini is where it’s at.
I played so much wordle, I own the app and everything but I lost interest in it

I play daily and I don’t recall ever seeing this. The one caveat is that they’ll do something like, on the first line, the four boxes will be fresh, prince, bel, air. But then it’s just obvious that is not what they meant.
But that being said, it’s a tough game. I only have an 85% win rate. Often words I’ve never heard of and plenty of the purple groups I can’t figure out even after I’ve eliminated all the other groups.
Lol, I definitely found that rough at first, but it’s at least the kind of word puzzle I’m good at, I suck ASS at wordle 😅
This site has an archive of all the NYT Connections games:
I tried to play this but no idea how it works. I tried the daily and I wrote a word that gave me all colored letters and didn’t let me keep writing. Did I guess the word? No idea…
In this you’re solving 8 wordles at the same time. So green letters are in the correct place, and yellow letters are in the word but in the wrong place. It may help to focus on one at a time like a normal wordle, and see how many you can get solved before you run out of guesses.
