In Wordle, players attempt to guess a five-letter secret word by inputting their blind guess. It then responds by confirming whether letters within the word are also within the secret word via yellow, green, and blank squares. Yellow squares mean the letter is in the word but in the wrong position. Green squares mean the letter is in the word and in the correct position. Blank means the letters aren’t part of the word at all. Absurdle follows these same rules, but with one catch—there is no secret word.

Absurdle follows the same general structure as Wordle. Players start by guessing a word. However, instead of comparing the player’s word with a secret word, Absurdle will make a list of potential words from the letters the player has yet to guess. In this way, the player will always be as far as possible from the true answer as Absurdle can logically manipulate.

The result is a Wordle-like game where the puzzle can never be solved in fewer than four guesses and is likely to take significantly more depending on the randomization inherent to Absurdle’s logic. Absurdle isn’t trying to make the player “lose,” though. While Wordle has a limit of six potential guesses before the player loses, Absurdle gives players unlimited guesses. The only losers are those who give up.

In many ways, Absurdle is better at what Wordle is trying to do than Wordle is. Where Wordle is a fun word-based puzzle game, players tend to fall into a rhythm of using the same words and patterns to solve each day’s puzzle. Absurdle forces players to stretch their vocabulary every single day. While some patterns may still be efficient, Absurdle will still encourage players to experiment and try new things.

Like World, Absurdle is a browser game that can be played for free. And since Absurdle isn’t based on a single daily word, it can be played as many times as players want. In doing so, it does lose the social aspect that makes Wordle so popular, but it’s a great way to train or continue to play after finishing the daily Wordle.

Absurdle is available now via browser.
