Where did Wordle come from?
Wordle was initially created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, though it quickly spread until it became an international phenomenon. Thousands of players across the globe tackle Wordle each day, with some fans even having created alternate versions of the daily word puzzle game. These include battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once.
The popularity of Wordle even reached such heights that the New York Times bought it earlier this year, while TikTok creators live stream themselves playing it.
