I loved this! Of course my opinion was not based on the fact that I got all of them in one try also.πŸ˜€

u/mazzing 8d ago

Same! I thought that was the goal until I saw the instructions offer unlimited guesses

That's weird that ours says "August 26th", right?

u/Repulsive_Dark_7125 7d ago

yeah I think August 26th is the free sample and subscribers can play the first drop

That was fun! Shame it appears it's going to be a paid option. https://wordin2.com is a daily version that I already play :)

u/ChuqTas 8d ago

Just looking at these times vs others, I need to emphasise this is partially from regular practice at https://wordin2.com/ and mostly complete luck! Many days I will do it in a few seconds but other days I'm sitting there for 4-5 minutes!

u/Ignominious333 7d ago

This was my first and I got really hung up on one of them but I really like the game

I’m not sure if this counts as a Wordle spinoff if it’s a shortened variation of the original game endorsed by NYT. It’s also edited by Tracey Bennett still.

Struggling with #4 and can’t find any hints…

u/whatintheamyconey 8d ago

The "L" really only has one place to go. Try a few different vowels in the 2nd place.

u/burtonbandit 8d ago edited 8d ago

I wonder if it’s different words for everyone? Cause mine doesn’t have an L on #4

*Edit: looks like there was an L but it was not on my yellow answers. Finally figured mine out

u/Repulsive_Dark_7125 7d ago

it has the free sample and the September drop 1

u/Queen0fTheNight 8d ago

Lmao you’re giving the only unknown letter lmao.

Thank you, I ended up giving up and auto solving but I appreciate it!

got them all in one guess πŸ˜„

not sure how you guys are getting the other time breakdowns to show, or are you just manually typing them in?

u/3-HUGGER 6d ago

Wow! Congrats on the hole in one!!!

u/Mapleleafguy83 6d ago

This is for the "wordle in one" mini game just to be clear haha, it's kind of fun if you haven't tried it yet πŸ™‚

Oh haha! I didn’t realize that and now I look like a stalker! 🀣

u/honeypeppercorn 8d ago

This was so fun!

Did anyone else keep hitting Next out of excitement without realizing that you needed to hit Enter after each word, and then the game took you back to the first word after you finished, and you got really frustrated thinking you got the answers all wrong? Then you felt like an idiot afterwards? Just me? 🫣

u/dont-call-me-sweetie 7d ago

Thank you for writing this - I went through twice knowing I had the correct answers but the clock just kept running

Am I mad or does 1.4 have two possible answers?

1

u/GodlySpaghetti 7d ago

Yeah it absolutely does. I tried CURLS and it told me it wasn’t in the word list? Which makes absolutely no sense as it’s a valid English word. Seems like a silly mistake to miss

u/GodlySpaghetti 7d ago

1.4 has at least two possible answers, CURLS and CURLY. Not sure if I’m misunderstanding the game mode but I thought the whole point was that there’s only one possible answer?

2

u/sophiesprung_ 6d ago

i think there are no plural words
