Today’s ‘Wordle’ #432 Hints To Answer Thursday, August 25 Word Puzzle

[ad_1]

When Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle created this five-letter word puzzle for his girlfriend in October 2021, he could have hardly imagined thousands and thousands of people would love it, and would still be playing the game nearly a year later.

And yet, Wordle has become a world’s sensation, to the point that the New York Times bought the game off Wardle for an undisclosed seven-figure sum in January and added it to its repertoire of puzzles and brainteasers (though Wordle is not behind the newspaper’s paywall—yet).

The game is today the same that Wardle had initially intended—a totally randomized puzzle where players have the same chances at guessing the word of the day, which can range from the extremely familiar to the hardly-ever-heard.
