The popular word game, Quordle, has been around for seven months. The game, inspired by Wordle, is four times more challenging. Here, players are required to guess four words in nine attempts or less. The basic principles of both the games are, however, the same. Players in both games are required to guess a five-letter word. Both games present the players with a grid. Depending on the accuracy of the letters entered, the tiles on the grid change colours.
If players enter the correct letter, the tile colour changes to green. The tile colour changes to yellow if a letter belonging to the word has been entered in the wrong place. The tile colour changes to gray if the players enter incorrect letters. Such letters must be eliminated from guessing words as they do not belong to the word.
Quordle can be a bit challenging for players switching from Wordle. However, with practice, players can get better at the game. For this purpose, Quordle offers a Practise mode. Without the practise mode, players have to wait for 24 hours for the next game.
Sometimes Quordle provides double-lettered words, which are more often than not, adjectives. However, such words can also be nouns or non-adjectives. The word game also gives words in their present-continuous, past-participle, or simple-present forms. Such words could end with an 'ing’ or an 'ed’.
