The new word won’t use any of the letter you’ve already ruled out (so if you guess “doors”, for example, the new word won’t have d, o, r, or s).
I know this isn’t exactly a new game, but I thought I’d share it because it is, as the name implies, absurd.
Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t see how this is different from wordle other than unlimited guesses.
For some reason, I appreciate that you’re not working towards on specific word from the start but slowly narrowing down the “available words” until one fits.
I didn’t notice any difference either, until I realised that this is actually how I play wordle already. My first 2, normally 3 guesses are just covering the space of likely letters with no repeats.
It’s fun for a couple of tries. But I found a set of 3 words that led to the same ends every time
You should check out Sedecordle where you have to guess 16 words at the same time. More difficult than wordle, but also more satisfying when you win.
Nah I’d say that the more words there are, the more information you’ll have to solve other words which makes things easy. I remember trying a 32-word one once and after my 3 starting guesses of choice it was just one word per guess. I think something like Quordle or Octordle (8/10 words) would be better.
Welp, guess I know what I’m doing for the rest of the day. Thanks for the suggestion.
This reminds me of the fake gameshow on 30 Rock called Homonyms
“Sorry! It’s the other one!”
Haha, pretty much. The only difference is with Absurdle, you’ll eventually get it right.
