5 Free Games to Exercise Your Brain BORED WITH WORDLE? TRY THIS
If you’re one of the 300,000 people who play the vocabulary-themed guessing game Wordle every day, we have good news: There are more online games just like it! Wordle went viral in October 2021. Although few people know it, the game actually started with romance. Software engineer Josh Wardle (yep, that’s where the name “Wordle” comes from) created it for his partner, Palak Shah. According to NPR, Palak loves word games — so to keep her entertained during COVID-19, Josh made her one! In January, he sold it to The New York Times for more than $1 million. Guessing the word of the day in six tries is addicting, and so is sharing your success on social media. But that spark might not last forever. To avoid total Wordle burnout and/or keep the fun going between daily puzzles, try these five other online games that also involve words, guessing games, or both. Quordle: Wordle masters love Quordle, which is the same basic game — except you have to guess four words at once on four different boards. You have just nine tries to solve the four daily puzzles, so bring your A game! Try it at Quordle.com.
Star Wordle: As you probably guessed, this is Wordle for “Star Wars” fans. The process is the
same as with normal Wordle, but all of the five-letter words come from the “Star Wars” books and movies. Test your knowledge at StarWordle.com.
Nerdle: Love words and math? This is the Wordle spinoff for you. Instead of guessing a word, players try to fill in a daily math equation and solution. Solve them at NerdleGame.com. Worldle: Leaving words behind entirely, in this game you guess the name of a country or territory from its outline! You have six chances, and each time you miss one, the game will give you more information about where the country is located relative to you. Play now at Worldle.teuteuf.fr. Words With Friends: This isn’t a Wordle spinoff, but if you’ve never played it, you’ll probably love it! Words With Friends is basically Scrabble for just two players, and you can play online or over the app. Like in Scrabble, you compete to score the most points. Spell those long words and win at WordsWithFriends.com.
