So here we are with Quordle number 1,000 – and who would have guessed that would be the case when it launched in the wake of the Wordle explosion nearly three years ago? No me, anyway – I stupidly thought most of the Wordle clones and alternatives would go the way of the dinosaurs, but this one at least has endured, thanks to the patronage of the dictionary Merriam-Webster, which bought Quordle in January 2023.
It didn’t exactly celebrate the occasion with a notable game, though. I failed to solve yesterday’s Quordle, so this was my reset – and it was an easy one, thankfully. My three set start words, STARE, DOILY and PUNCH, did almost all of the hard work for me, giving me all five letters for three-quarters of the board. All I needed to do with those was to solve an anagram: CORAL, HEIST, SOAPY, easy. That left one more, where I had four letters. But two were already green, so finding WHOSE was really not difficult.
It might have been nice if the words had been more interesting in some sense, but don’t worry about all that – just be pleased that Quordle is still going strong after all of this time.
