🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I didn’t like this game. But I’ll try again tomorrow— Jess Robinson (@JessieRobinson) January 9, 2022
Wordle is a daily word puzzle created by Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle – @powerlanguish. The green squares are correct letters in the right place, yellow squares are correct but in the wrong place.
Josh designed the game for his puzzle-crazy partner but has watched it go viral – even featuring in the New Yorker.

Still not on Wordle but I’m loving your updates and, bloody well, some of you went right to the wire with yesterday’s one. Stay strong, hold your nerve right into that sixth guess. It won’t always be pretty. But this is a results game.
