Wordy Daily Puzzle Strategy

Wordy is generous if your early guesses do real work. It gets frustrating when you burn turns on words that only confirm what you already knew. Six guesses is plenty if you treat the first half of the puzzle like information gathering.

Pick opening words that test common vowels and consonants.Write off impossible letters early instead of circling back to them.A useful guess beats a pretty guess.

A strong opening routine

  • Start with a balanced word instead of a gimmick opener.
  • Let your second guess test the letters you still know the least about.
  • By guess three, you should be solving positions, not still feeling around blindly.

Read the board correctly

A correct letter stays put. A present letter belongs somewhere else. A miss should leave your mental list right away unless you have a real reason to suspect a repeated-letter edge case.

Endgame discipline

When you are down to a few candidates, choose the guess that splits the field best. The right safety guess can save you from a miserable fifty-fifty on turn six.
