Are you close to conquering today’s Wordle but can’t quite work it out? Newsweek has your back.

Over the last few years, Wordle has dominated the online puzzle space. Its creator, Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle, developed the viral word game and released it to the public in 2021. By 2022, The New York Times had acquired Wordle for an undisclosed seven-figure fee.

Despite coming up with the concept, Wardle previously told Newsweek that he’s “not very good at it.”

“I’m afraid I’m not really the best,” he said in January 2022. “[My partner] and I play it on the couch together each morning. She will consistently get it in three goes, which is way, way better than I can ever hope to achieve. I normally need at least four or five attempts.”

The concept of the game is simple—players must figure out a five-letter word within six attempts through a process of elimination. Green boxes mean the letter is correct and in the correct place, yellow boxes indicate the letter is somewhere in the word, though not in the correct location, and gray boxes reveal the letter is not in the word at all.

Erhan Aslan, associate professor of applied linguistics at the University of Reading in the U.K., explained Wordle‘s popularity to Newsweek in November 2022.

“In today’s digital age, like many other things, many simple games like Wordle can be played online. I think that Wordle gains its popularity not only from its simple rules but also from its virality on social media platforms as a result of people sharing/posting their scores to demonstrate a sense of accomplishment and validation.”
