The first weekend Wordle has gone live for Saturday, March 16, and it’s probably the trickiest puzzle of the week so far. Fortunately, that’s where Daily Express comes in. Just head to the bottom of the page for a selection of hints for the March 16 teaser, as well as some general tips and tricks to help you in the future. And there’s no need to feel guilty, because our hints are completely spoiler-free. Good luck, and remember to keep checking back for daily Wordle clues.
The game that spawned a thousand clones, the aim of Wordle is to figure out a five letter word in just six guesses.
To solve the puzzle, you’ll need to pay close attention to the colour of the tiles. If the tile turns grey, then the letter you’ve guessed doesn’t appear in the final word. If it turns yellow, then the letter appears in the word, just not in that position. A green tile means the letter is in the word and in the correct place.
If you’re looking for a Wordle alternative, there’s a Lord of the Rings themed Wordle called Lordle, a musical variant called Heardle, and a hardcore Wordle game called Quordle – where the aim is to guess four words instead of just one.
If you’re not great with words, then you’ll prefer something like Nerdle, where you’ve got to figure out a maths equation.
