Quordle #24 was the set of 4 words for Monday, October 26, 2026. A (3 boards), G (2 boards), I (2 boards), R (2 boards), S (2 boards) and T (2 boards) appear in more than one answer, so a guess that places them earns colour on several boards at once. DIGIT repeats a letter, the kind of word that hides from a one-letter-per-slot habit. Of five common openers, STARE leaves the smallest total field here: 116 possible answers across the 4 boards after one guess, against 297 for CRANE. A plain solver that opens with it and then always guesses the likeliest word on the tightest board finishes in 6 guesses (9 allowed).
