Ok...official complaint about the app....I just whiffed (obviously) on the word "Iraqi"...I thought it went without saying on these word games that proper nouns were a no no, but evidently not.

At about level 100 or so, the app becomes 6 letter wordle, which is much tougher.

I just looked at mine....try searching for something like "wordle--6 tries 1 word". It has that moniker on it.

Ok, so it looks like it's a Wordle knock off, not from NYT?

Correct. But it lets you play more than one game a day, with multiple formats. But it is still a knockoff.

I don't guess i see the issue......since the NYT didn't invent Wordle and this app follows the rules of Wordle.

How is it totally different, other than the fact that it lets you play more than one game a day? The only difference i have seen is the word "Iraqi".

Does the NYT have a monopoly on cool 5-letter words or something?

This has been gnawing at me as well.....i feel like i played "wordle" (not called that at the time) a longggg time ago somewhere. When this thread was created and i clicked on that link, i immediately had the feeling/knowledge/remembrance that i had played this game already before. As for the word list...i don't get it. I feel like anyone with average intelligence can grab a dictionary or just scroll through their brain for challenging 5 letter words.

I read an article the other day that there are actually 2 word lists for Wordle right now. There is the original list from the creator of the game and a new list from the NYT. People are being moved to the NYT website, sometimes automatically, but anyone who is still on the original website is getting a different word. And the NYT is removing “insensitive†words from the list of words you can enter. Words like “slaveâ€. PC gone too far. https://notthebee.com/article/the-n...ing-a-bunch-of-words-for-being-offensive
