Thousands of players across the globe tackle Wordleeach day, with some fans even having created alternate versions of the daily word puzzle game. These include battle royale format Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordleand Quordlethat make you guess multiple words at once.

This is because the New York Timesmade changes to the Wordleword list after acquiring it, and sometimes swaps out words from the original list.
