Since Wordle came along, I found a few sites that I do on and off that are in the same general vein - one a day, quick bites of puzzle goodness. I thought I'd share.
Wordle - the original, you have a 5 letter word to guess in 6 guesses. Each guess will tell you if you got a correct letter in the right place (green) or a correct letter in the wrong place (yellow)
Quordle - same idea only this time you're doing 4 at the same time, as in you put in a guess for all four words simultaneously. You have a total of 9 guesses to guess all 4 words. But this also means that any guess for one will potentially help inform the others.
Duotrigordle - same idea again only this time, 32 at the same time with a total of 37 guesses to guess all 32 words. And of course, any guess for one will inform the rest.
Don't Wordle - 6 guesses to *not* guess the word of the day. The catch is that with each guess, any clues you get must be adhered to - e.g. if you put in 'QUICK' as a first word and you learn that I is in the middle spot, you *have* to use that in all your future guesses.
And a couple of others that I do less, mostly because I don't know what they're referencing...
Framed - film time! You're given up to 6 guesses with pictures from films, and guess the film. I find this pretty hit or miss if I've seen it (or seen promotional shots from which I can recognise it)
Heardle - play the first few seconds of a song (going up to I think 16 seconds over the 6 guesses) and name the song. I find this even more hit or miss than Framed because I simply don't know the songs. I think I've identified 3 or 4 total in the few weeks I tried it. (Of course, April Fool's Day was Rick Astley.)
