Love Wordle? Try these spin-offs!

Are you addicted to the online word game Wordle?

Here are some spin-off games you might like:

Letterdle  It’s a daily game like Wordle, but you’re just trying to guess one letter of the alphabet.

Seven Wordles  It’s Wordle, but seven puzzles in a row and it’s timed.

Hello Wordle It’s like Wordle, but you can play more than once a day, with words up to 11 letters long.

Absurdle  This one’s more difficult because it doesn’t WANT you to get it right! You literally can’t get it right on the first try because the algorhithm will change the word if you do!  You CAN eventually narrow it down to one word it just takes a while and you can play over and over again.

Squirdle.  Again it’s like Wordle, but you’re trying to guess names of  “Pokémon” characters!

Sweardle  This one was inevitable…it’s Wordle, but with four-letter words (yes, those)!
