Wordle is a daily puzzle game where players attempt to guess a hidden word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, feedback is given to indicate which letters are in the correct spot and which ones are not in the word at all.

For those playing today, initial hints mentioned that the word starts with an ‘R’, ends with a ‘Y’, contains one vowel, and has five unique letters. These clues led players to formulate guesses.

As players navigated their guesses, one player shared their strategy: using the word ‘crime’ as a starting point. This guess eliminated several potential options but ultimately led them to the correct answer in four tries.

The word ‘rowdy’ comes from 18th century American English, originally describing a “rough, disorderly person.” Over time, its meaning expanded to include a general sense of boisterousness.
