Did my first one ever today on the back of the NYT noise… Dunno why I waited so long, good fun. Got it in 3. is it going to disappear behind a paywall do you think? Gut says no but will come with advertising etc. (or a one off payment to app.)

A friend has just told me about Nerdle.

This is more my cup of tea though!

NYT have apparently said that that’s not the immediate plan, or something like that. Leaves open the possibility that it will in the future. Maybe the FTC can declare it a public utility and force them to provide it free of charge.

I play pure Wordle and even managed to balls that up.

🤦🏼‍♀️

Nerdle seems better as I only seem to get 2 or 3 with wordl.

Anyway, my very first go at Nerdle

Spoiler for

Nerdle does seem to need a lot more thinking and less guessing. Quite good fun.

Play for free while you can. If they’ve spent a seven figure sum on buying it they’ll want a return on their investment.

Going into nerdle without knowing the rules is challenging. 50% chance of doing it in 3, I made the wrong choice.

Feel like I’m a bit better at needle than Wordle. Must be the reduction in the luck element.

Sorry about the spoiler – I pasted more than I meant to. 🙁

Won’t do it again.

Thanks to the mods for correcting

My first try at nerdle – I’m not sure I prefer it to wordle, it makes my head hurt

Leadership means making the hard calls, like forgoing the 25% chance of a third guess win, to instead ruthlessly weed out the potential remaining letters to guarantee the guess four win.
