Quordle: today's puzzle, free

How to play Quordle

Type a five-letter word and press Enter: it lands on all four boards at once. On each board, green is the right letter in the right place, yellow is in that word but elsewhere, and grey isn't in that word. Each key on the keyboard is split in four, one quarter per board. Find all four words in nine guesses. Full rules, a worked example and a practice board on the how to play page.

Stuck? Every board shows how many answers still fit, and a hint reveals one letter where it narrows things most. Done? The review grades each guess so you can see which ones pulled their weight. Want more? Unlimited Quordle has endless boards with 12, 9 or 7 guesses. Missed a day? Every past puzzle is in the archive, answers included.

Frequently asked questions

What is Quordle?

Quordle is Wordle times four: you guess one five-letter word at a time, and that guess is scored on four hidden words at once. Green means right letter, right place; yellow means the letter is in that word but elsewhere; grey means it isn't in that word. You have nine guesses to find all four.

Is this the original Quordle?

No. Quordle was created by Freddie Meyer in 2022 and is now published by Merriam-Webster. Puzzlune's Quordle follows the same rules with our own word lists and our own daily picks: a free daily, unlimited mode in three sizes (12, 9 or 7 guesses), an archive of every past day with the answers, a words-left counter per board, a hint that reveals one letter and explains why, and a guess-by-guess review after you finish. We're not affiliated with Merriam-Webster.

How does the keyboard work?

Every key is split into four quarters, one per board in the same 2×2 order as the boards: top-left is board 1, top-right board 2, bottom-left board 3, bottom-right board 4. A quarter turns green or yellow as you learn about that letter on that board. A letter that's grey on every open board goes dark: it's dead. When a board is solved, its quarters clear so you only see the boards that are still open.

What does 'words left' mean?

After each guess, every open board shows how many words from the answer list still fit all the clues you have for it. It's a number, never the words, and you can switch it off in the settings. Use it to decide which board to attack: a board with 2 left is one guess from done; a board with 40 left needs a probing word.

How do hints work?

A hint picks the board that's furthest from solved and reveals one letter of its answer in its place, choosing the letter that narrows that board the most. The revealed letter appears above the board and on the keyboard. The daily allows three hints; unlimited mode has no limit.

What is the review?

After the game, every guess is graded in hindsight: ✓ if it cut the field of possible answers across the open boards by more than half (or solved a board), – if it made progress, ✗ if it ruled out less than a third. Tap a ✗ to see the word that would have narrowed things most. It's how you get from nine guesses to six.

Do I need an account?

No. Progress, streak and stats stay in your browser. A day counts for your streak once all four words are found.
