If you enjoy daily word games such as Wordle, Hurdle is another puzzle worth adding to your routine. The game features five rounds, with each hurdle offering clues through correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters.

Guess the answer correctly to advance to the next hurdle. Your answer from the previous round becomes your first guess in the next one, which may provide several clues—or none—depending on the words involved.

In the final hurdle, all the correct answers from the previous rounds are displayed, along with their correct and misplaced letters. Keep in mind that the number of times a letter is highlighted in earlier guesses does not necessarily indicate how many times that letter appears in the final hurdle.
