Thoroughly enjoying it.
Mostly getting the word on the 4th attempt.
Was lucky once getting it at the 3rd attempt.
Many spinoff websites popping up. Worldle, does a similar concept, but with maps of countries.2015 BMW X3 3.0D

Absolutely love it. I've also "infected" my daughter and 9 other friends
These are my stats from today.
Do you start with a different word every day or the same word? I start with AUDIO, to cover as many vowels as I can.2013 Lexus RX350 EX AWD - 12.8 l/100km currently 256,000km (best tank to tank 10.9 l/100)

Apparently salet (or trace or crate) are the best starters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRed0Xmc2Wg

First attempt today.

Will be addictive, for sure.If you need music in the bush or on the beach, you’re missing the point.

Really cool game! And equally cool story - guy created it to play with his wife in lockdown, there are apparently 14500 5 letter words and she ticked the ones she knew 4500 odd which is ised as the base, he shared with friends in November - millions accessing it by end of Jan and sold to NY Times for seven figure $’s a week or two back.

Also playing and enjoying it thoroughly. Clear example of how things go viral as I have heard about it from multiple sources over the last 3 weeks. Kinda wish I started earlier, but it is now a solid part of my morning routine (unless it is a challenging word like today's then it is part of my day 😂
I use the same 1st word every day trying to be heavy on vowels, but I know my word isn't the optimum, still it seems to work ok, so holding out for that day when it is the word of the day!
