How Wordle works
Wordle gives you six tries to guess a five-letter word. After each guess, tiles turn green when a letter is in the right spot, yellow when it's in the word but misplaced, and gray when it's not in the word at all. A new puzzle drops daily at midnight local time — play it free at nytimes.com.
