Quordle: Four Wordles in One

Hi everyone I am the creator of Quordle and I am glad that people are enjoying playing it :)<p>I also appreciate all the feedback and I am looking to improve the experience when playing on desktop!<p>You can follow the @quordle Twitter for updates as well!

Of all the variants I&#x27;ve come across so far, I think this one has the most staying power. I think I might prefer it to the original.<p>I do kind of wish you got one more guess, though, especially if you get stuck, like I did today, having 4 Greens but 5 possibilities for the final letter.

Fun!<p>I made one with a 5x5 square of letters, containing five words down and five across: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;squareword.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;squareword.org&#x2F;</a><p>A bit like a combination of crosswords and Wordle, as vertical words can be used for additional clues.

This game is pretty cool but it doesn&#x27;t play well on desktops because you have to scroll to see all four words. In my opinion it would be better to have all four side by side instead of trying to fit a mobile design for desktop websites.

This is getting close to by idea of &quot;Borgle = Boggle + Wordle&quot;.<p>Basically the idea is there is a boggle board generated and all N-letter word paths found. The paths are made available to click on (there are a few UI approaches to this). Once a path is selected you enter Wordle mode for that path. Every guess must still be a real word, but the neat part is if you even nail a single letter, it appears on the Boggle board. And that letter immediately appears as solved on any other path that overlaps it. You can jump&#x2F;revisit paths at any time.<p>Goal is to complete the board (unsure if there will be guess limit, letters that are not on any path of course are automatically visible&#x2F;correct on game start). The completion sharing will be a matrix of numbers instead of colors showing how many guesses of that space across any path were made until the first right letter was achieved. Boggle board size configurable as is the min&#x2F;max word letters (5x5 w&#x2F; only 5-letter words by default).<p>There are some neat strategies here of path choice&#x2F;switching and guessing wrong words intentionally in overlapping paths. Will dev if I ever get the time, but feel free to steal the idea and make it.

Just wait until you try Octordle!<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;octordle.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;octordle.com&#x2F;</a>

This was surprisingly more achievable than I thought it would be, and provides a nice challenge with some strategy.

I’m loving Quordle and the practice mode. Unfortunately practice mode has ‘stuck’ I can’t clear the board from two days ago. Any suggestions?

Maybe this takes the fun out of it, but with Quordle, I&#x27;ve had great success with:<p>TUBES<p>FLING<p>CHAMP<p>WORDY<p>With those, I&#x27;ve always completed all four...

As many of you I took a jab at a wordle solver. That wasn&#x27;t so hard.<p>Then I said, how can I guarantee as a human, I win, in 6 moves almost 100% of the time?<p>&quot;Quick Brown Fox&quot;, as in, use as many possible letters in the alphabet, comprised of 5 letter words, given that we have only 5 words to play with. That gives us 25 characters to use.<p>I came up with<p>BLOCK VENTS JUMPY DWARF GHAZI<p>this leaves out Q and X, which is fine. Using this as a template basically boils Wordle down to a anagram game, so kind of defeats the purpose.<p>But in this case, i was able to resolve all 4 at one time using my above combination. I guessed, correctly all 4 with PLUMB GLEAN VALID IMPLY. I then realized, you get even more chances on Quordle, but I didn&#x27;t need it!

Going to echo all the other positive comments. This is the most fun variation I have played. On my first try I failed to complete it, then went and did a practice round with some smarter initial word choices and won (barely!)

Suggestion: I play and share Dordles via screenshots. I&#x27;d like to do the same with this but I don&#x27;t want to use two screenshots (have to scroll down). Can you have an option to sit these side by side?

I like this one quite a bit. I find Wordle fun, but a bit plain sometimes. Quordle really makes me think out of the box to optimize across the grids.<p>side note: I&#x27;ve gotten most of them, but today&#x27;s ruined my streak.

Played for the first time and eventually got them all but there&#x27;s nothing that says &quot;solved&quot; or &quot;well done&quot; or let&#x27;s you share your achievement... What&#x27;s that about?

After a few practices to get me out of hard-mode-wordle mode I have found that spending the first 4 guesses on an exhaustive search of letters (picking words with letters in common positions) seems to be universally the best opening. Pursuing individual words before 3 guesses is not optimal.

Needs work to fit above the fold on small screens. Show fewer rows of guesses, especially early.

A nice implementation, I really enjoy the practice tab. As many suggested already, it plays poorly on desktops&#x2F;laptops, I have to scroll to see all four words, would be nice to see horizontally arranged windows.

Phew, 7&#x2F;9&#x2F;4&#x2F;5. Got the last one with a pretty wild guess at the end. This was the most fun Wordle variation I’ve come across so far, will definitely come back to play tomorrow.

I like this one. I&#x27;ve been playing it a lot the last few days. Is it just me, or is it immensely more difficult than Wordle? I think I only get all 4 correct maybe 25% of the time.

It would be wonderful if this style of game had the option to render all the letters in lowercase, my brain just seems to treat different case symbols as representing different letters.

My favorite variant yet.

I was so close, solved three and was down to two choices for the fourth (I knew four letters but there were two words and I guessed the wrong one).<p>I used grep to help with the searching.

Neat, but I think the keyboard coloring could use tweaking. It wasn&#x27;t immediately obvious to me which were unguessed letters and which were guessed but unmatched.

What I have loved about this iteration of the idea is that I often don&#x27;t solve the problem. That makes it more fun to me. I like the difficult level.

I&#x27;d like to see a cross between this and Absurdle

This is the best one so far!<p>This is like when I discovered calcudoku 12x12s and now sudokus are dumb and boring. Just a lot better.<p>May the NYT acquire you for the level-up option.

This is a nice refresh and a good challenge, especially after NYT unsurprisingly riddled wordle with trackers.

I spent way too much time playing this this afternoon. Practice mode is dangerous. Thanks, I think. ;)

I thought this was a troll game until I played it and enjoyed it thoroughly! Good job.

This feels like a cheap ripoff of Dordle: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;zaratustra.itch.io&#x2F;dordle" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;zaratustra.itch.io&#x2F;dordle</a><p>If you&#x27;re going to put your own spin on Wordle, have at it, many others have, but at least demonstrate some creativity.

Why stop at four?

Can you put this one in the app store?

4,6,7,9

just when I thought we couldn&#x27;t imagine more wordle variants!nice :D
