Wordle Challenge: How to Guess Today’s Sticky Solution

NEW YORK, NY

Wordle players around the world are taking on a challenging puzzle today as they try to guess the secret five-letter word. For September 28, 2025, the answer is ‘GOOEY’. Each day, players have six attempts to guess the hidden word using clues revealed after each guess.

The word ‘gooey’ describes something that is sticky and soft, often used for foods like cake or candy. Wordle has risen in popularity since its debut in October 2021, originally created by software engineer Josh Wardle.

Players can narrow down their guesses based on the feedback from previous attempts. Letters that are correct and in the right position will turn green, while those that are correct but in the wrong position will turn yellow. Incorrect letters are marked in grey.

To succeed, many players strategize by starting with common words. For example, today’s clues indicated the word starts with ‘G’, ends with ‘Y’, and contains three vowels. One player shared that their starting word, ‘PLATE’, left them guessing the possible answers, leading them to correctly guess ‘GOOEY’ on their third try.

“It’s always exciting to nail the word early,” said one enthusiastic player. “I love the challenge and how it connects so many people.”

Besides being entertaining, Wordle fosters community as players often share their winning grids without revealing today’s answer. This spoiler-free sharing has contributed to its viral success.
