About Wuordle:
Wuordle is a type of web-based word game developed and created by Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle. The name of the owner and publisher was The New York Times Company since 2022.
Players have six attempts to guess a five-letter word, with each guess in the way of colored tiles, you have to indicate when letters match or occupy the correct portion. Every day a five-letter word is chosen by which the player needs to guess within six tries.
After every guess, each letter should be marked as either green, yellow or gray. Green is indicating the letter that which one is correct where is the correct position, yellow means it should be in the answer but not in the right position, while grey color indicates it is not in the answer at all.
The game has the hard mode option which requires players to include which is marked as green and yellow in the subsequent guesses. The game has a dark theme as well as high contrast theme for colorblind accessibility, which changes the color scheme from green and yellow to orange and blue.
This game is quite similar to the 1955 pen-and-paper game Jotto and to the game show franchise Lingo.
