⭐⭐ Wordle ⭐⭐

Abstract

Wordle is a word game where the objective is to guess a five-letter word in six attempts or fewer.

In each attempt, the player writes a word and the game provides visual clues to indicate which letters are not present in the word to be guessed, and which ones are, either in the correct position or not.

End of the game

The game can end in two ways:

• The player guesses the word correctly.
• The player uses up all 6 attempts without guessing the word.

Letter clues

Once the player adds a word, the system will color the background of each letter's box according to these criteria:

• green background and circular shape: the letter is present and in that same position
• red background and nearly circular shape: the letter is present but in another position
• gray background and square shape: the letter is not present

Example

Assuming the word to be guessed is { s q u i d } and the player has already tried 3 words:

Keyboard

On the keyboard, the letters will also be marked with the same colors to help the player easily know which letters to use and which not to use, although they have complete freedom to use any letter at all times.

Buttons and options

The row with all blank cells is what we will call the ACTIVE ROW of the board. This is where you will write the word you have to guess.

To CORRECT a written letter: if you have already written one or more letters in the ACTIVE ROW, you can click on the letter in question and that cell will be cleared.

To CLEAR the entire active row: press the key with the symbol at the beginning of the on-screen keyboard.

To VALIDATE the written word: press the key with the symbol at the end of the on-screen keyboard.

Valid words

You should keep in mind that:

• You cannot write just any 5-letter word, as the game comes with a list of 6000 to 11000 words (depending on the language).
• These lists are missing many words: plurals, verb conjugations, etc.
• However, to avoid making the game extremely difficult to pass, I made a selection of "common words" to be guessed, which are approximately one-fifth of the list. But even so, you can use the rest of the words to help you rule out letters.
