How to Play
Guess the hidden word in six tries. After each guess, the tiles show how close you are.
Green — the letter W is in the word and in the right spot.
Yellow — the letter I is in the word but in the wrong spot.
Gray — the letter U is not in the word at all.
Solve it (or run out of rows) and press Enter to play again instantly — that's the Unlimited part. Longer words get extra rows: the row count is the word length plus one, with a minimum of six.
Strategy that actually helps
- Open with high-coverage starters. Words like SLATE, CRANE, ADIEU and AUDIO test the most common letters at once — see our data-driven starting words analysis.
- Don't repeat letters early. Your second guess should cover new ground; SLATE then CORNY probes ten distinct letters.
- Trapped on a pattern? Staring at _IGHT with three guesses left, don't brute-force LIGHT/MIGHT/NIGHT one by one — burn a guess on something like MELON to sort the candidates first. To inspect every word that still matches your green and yellow tiles, enter the pattern in Wordle Solver.
- Level up gradually. When five letters feels easy, move to six or seven — longer words reward structural thinking over letter-by-letter guessing.
Playing a different kind of word game?
Wordle colors are only one kind of word puzzle. If you have loose rack letters, blank tiles, or a Scrabble-style board position, use Word Unscrambler to find legal words and scoring placements. If you are playing the official daily NYT puzzle and want clues without revealing everything at once, visit Wordle Hint Today.
Frequently asked questions
Is Wordle Unlimited free?

How is this different from the daily Wordle?
Same rules, no restrictions. The daily game offers one 5-letter puzzle every 24 hours; Wordle Unlimited removes the wait and adds 4-11 letter modes, themed topic packs, and custom puzzles. We also run our own once-a-day shared word on the Daily Challenge page.
Does it save my statistics?
Your games, win rate, streaks and guess distribution are stored in your browser — no account needed. See the My Stats page.
Can I make my own Wordle?
Yes. The Create page turns up to ten of your own words into a shareable challenge link.
What words count as valid guesses?
Each length has its own dictionary of accepted words. Answers are drawn from a smaller pool of common words, so you will never need obscure vocabulary to win.
