The simple yet challenging word-guessing game called Wordle has been taking the internet by storm as of late. The game can be accessed via an internet browser on a phone or computer, making it super simple for anyone to start playing. How it all works is that every 24 hours a new word appears on the Wordle site and people have only a few tries to guess what the five-letter word is. After each guess from the player, the color of the tiles will change to show which ones are correct or incorrect.
If a Wordle tile is grayed out, that means that the chosen letter is not in the word at all. If the tile turns yellow, that means that the letter is in the wrong spot, but it exists in the Wordle puzzle. And finally, if a tile turns green, the letter is in the correct spot.
