Anyone into ‘Wordle’ on here?  Simple format, but compelling - I’m hooked! Gives the grey matter a bit of exercise.

    Yes. I’ve just been doing it for about a fortnight. After breakfast with a coffee to wake up my brain. The sharing doesn’t work on here of course.

    What's the best link, I've found several over last week and don't know which one everyone uses. smile

    There's only one "real" free original game - not an App - played in a Browser.

    WORDLE

    And I see that my shared result shows up correctly on here). I usually play on my IPad, via Safari (other Browsers are available) but if share my score it only appears in black and white. But OK on my phone or PC.

    So I apologise to this website for casting aspersions!

    Love Wordle, but not too happy with the spelling of today’s solution 🤔.

    Also a fan of Nerdle, similar setup but numbers rather than letters.

    https://nerdlegame.com/

    Both very addictive 🙂.

    Yes, I blame George III for that!

    I suppose MATHS could come up and the Americans won't recognise that....so it works both ways. wink (It's never spelt with an S over the pond.)

    It's a clever little invention.

    What I don't like is someone giving subtle hints when they post their score. For instance, someone I follow on Twitter mentioned American spelling the other day - so it was more or less obvious what the last two letters would be. Hence I used them in my start word.

    Today. No hints.

    I was down to the last line yesterday, struggling to make a word with the remaining letters, then remembered I’d seen about American spelling,then it clicked
