Quordle today (game #846) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #846, are…
As Quordles go, this was on the easier side. Or at least it was on the easier side for me, because my three set start words – STARE, DOILY and PUNCH – did a lot of the hard work for me. In fact, I’m thinking of trying a new strategy just because it’s not typically much of a challenge playing it this way, and I’ll never be able to score better than a 7 out of 9. We’ll see.
Anyway, as far as today went, the only tricky one was FLAKE, because the -LA-E pattern I’d uncovered could also have been the likes of FLAME or BLAME. But once I solved that it gave me the K for ALIKE, the other potentially difficult one given how my board was looking at that stage, so I completed the puzzle with one guess spare.
