    Fun challenge - Wordl word game

    Recently, I was made aware of this game. There is a new word every day and we have to figure out what it is in 6 tries or less. Quick and fun game. First time I needed the 6 tries but the last two days I have succeeded in 2 tries.

    Love these kinds of puzzles! First try - 4 tries.

    Thanks, Razz, that's fun. I am rule-challenged, but getting there.

    I had to look up a how-to the first time, I confess.

    Some hints
    - if it isn't a real word and you hit enter, it won't be accepted.
    - today, it took 5 tries but I discovered that you can use a yellow letter twice. I was struggling after getting it right in two tries the past two days.

    So, how do you access a word a day? The link above does not do that? Downloaded app and have to do 4 letters…. is this the same?

    I didn't know that there was an app. I go to the website each day to play. There probably is a shortcut but I haven't found it yet. Someone wiser than me may find it and share.
