In 2023, Wordle became popular and had everyone and their grandma trying to guess a word in less than six attempts. Our little fingers were tangled around its little finger.
With Wordle’s global success, many other games with similar titles have emerged.
Maybe you should include some of these games in your morning routine if you love Wordle.
Heardle
The music version of Wordle. The opening second of a song is the first thing you hear. If you cannot guess it, you will hear two seconds. There are gradually more and more parts of the song that can be heard, before it abruptly ends at the sixteen-second mark.
A wide range of genres can be heard on the CD, ranging from pop punk to country, indie classics to soul. There is no restriction on the type of song you would like to choose.
There is a maximum of six guesses that you can make.
Every 24 hours there is a new song that you can listen to, and you can share your progress with friends and family.
Worldle
You will be tested on your geography skills in Worldle. From the outline of a country, you need to guess the country’s name.
As soon as you have guessed a country, you are instructed on how to move on the map from that country towards the mystery country once you have guessed that country.
If the mystery country happens to be Thailand and you guess China, then you will be instructed to go north if you guess Thailand.
The game is similar to Globe, in which you have to guess the country from where it is located on the globe, based on its location.
There will be a pale yellow color on the map if the country you guess is far away from the mystery country. You will be able to see a darker red if you are closer to the mystery country than if you guess further away from it.
When you guess France as the mystery country, and you guess Germany as the mystery country, then Germany will appear as a deep, dark red color. An indication that you are very close to achieving your goal.
Flagdle
It is a game where you are given a flag and you have to guess which country the flag represents.
To get the answer to the question, you are allowed to make a maximum of six guesses.
As soon as you guess a country, you are given a percentage of how similar the flag of that country is to the guessing country’s flag.
Using this example, if you guess that the mystery flag is from Italy and the mystery flag is from France, you will receive a similarity score of 66.6%.
