my kids love it, basically hangman

Been doing it for years, on work days with a cuppa when I get home with my Mrs.  We do it as a joint effort.

 

Have you tried Quordle?  Four to do simultaneously with nine guesses (total) instead of six.  Can be a lot of fun, and not as hard as it sounds.

 

Anybody willing to share their opening words?  I always use AUDIO followed by EVERY.

It varies, but peach followed by odium.

Wordle 1,001 2/6

 

⬜🟨⬜🟩🟩

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

 

Me and the Mrs also do wordle together, prob gives an advantage but not always... Today I was quick off the mark and this is all my own work. She did get a 1 recently though which obvs I can't claim any credit for at all.

First words vary, usually vowel heavy but bagging a consonant in the first line is v helpful...

I've not quite developed a system yet but I often start with AMINE. Or sometimes MEATY.

I think I'll steal your AUDIO! Cheers.

Now I have also tried Victordle.  This is where you play competitively with someone else, somewhere in the world.

 

It is great for knocking back your confidence if ever you start to feel you are getting good at it!  I don't like it much as it takes away the pleasure (for me anyway) if you are under time pressure.

I do Wordle, Quordle, Octordle (often including Sequence and Rescue), Worldle (with sub-games within), Travle and Connections.

The last is a real headscratcher: 16 apparently random words that can be grouped into four x four sets.  Boy are some of the connections tenuous

I got a headache just trying to read all those names! Fair play to you.
