Re: Wordle
Seems like a tough word to get 2 or even three on, good going. It took me four

Re: Wordle
I like Connections. Strands is good but can be annoying. I don't understand why Spelling Bee is so short.The Argonaut wrote:Wordle is the only one I definitely play every day. Strands is a solid second favorite, and I'll occasionally play Tiles if the shapes are not too annoying. Spelling Bee is frustrating as a non-paying player because it cuts off too quick. I'll play the Mini Crossword sometimes.
I used to play the Hard Sudoku, but now I tend to play one of the puzzles featured on the 'Cracking the Cryptic' YouTube channel instead. Generally more fun puzzles because they were constructed by a human with a specific solve path in mind, whereas the NYT Sudoku are constructed by computer as technically solveable. Not always the most fun

Re: Wordle
I was playing Connections when they had that game analysis thing but I stopped when they put that behind the paywall. I'm less interested in the game than I am in how people play it

Re: Wordle
Connections and Strands are my two favorites. Love those and get genuinely bummed if I miss a day.
Also love the Mini and Spelling Bee.
Tiles sometimes.

Re: Wordle
I was also unfamiliar with that word.
However, I found the rest of the puzzle fairly straightforward.
