Wordle 268 Answer for March 14, 2022

Wordle has yet another puzzle of the day for fans to try out. The word of the day is kind of odd one, so players may need a hint or two to get through to the answer.

How To Play Wordle

Wordle is one of the most viral games of 2022. Players from all over the English-speaking world are playing, teaching others to play Wordle, and spreading the word through the spoiler-free Share button built into the game. But for anyone who hasn't tried out this viral sensation, here is a breakdown of the rules.

First, players need to go to the New York Times Wordle website. While it used to be hosted elsewhere, Wordle was purchased by the New York Times and is now hosted through the NYT site. Once players find the site, they just need to pick a good starting word to get their Wordle game started. Every game starts with a blank slate; players have a grand total of six tries to guess a five-letter English word with some hints.

While everyone seems to have their own strategy for winning at Wordle, players can choose any starting word. A good way to go is to choose a word with common letters like R, S, T, L, and a couple of vowels. Some players like to use the word from the previous day's puzzle instead, which is also a good strategy for most words. After picking a word, type it into the website and press enter. The letters of the word will then change color on whether they are correct or not.

Green letters are right and in the right place.
Yellow letters are correct but in the wrong place.
Gray letters don't appear in the puzzle anywhere in the answer.

Using these clues, players need to guess the correct answer before their total tries run out. After the puzzle, players will see a screen with their Wordle stats and the Share button to share their board spoiler-free just as long as they are using the same device and browser to play on, whether that's a phone, a computer, or a custom Game Boy cartridge to play Wordle.
