Today’s Hurdle answers and hints
If you are working through today’s Hurdle, the five answers are BLAZE, REGAL, ANVIL, FUSSY and BAGGY. The puzzle begins with a clue related to fire and ends with a final clue meaning loose.
Hurdle Word 1 has the hint “Fire,” and the answer is BLAZE. The second round gives players the clue “Royal,” leading to REGAL. In the third round, the hint refers to a blacksmithing tool, making ANVIL the answer.
The fourth Hurdle clue is “Cranky,” with FUSSY as the solution. For the final round, the hint is “Loose,” and the answer is BAGGY.
How Hurdle works
Hurdle is a five-round daily word game. In the first round, players try to identify a word while the game indicates which letters are correct, misplaced or incorrect. Solving the word unlocks the next hurdle, where the answer from the previous round is supplied as the first guess.
Those carried-over answers may provide several useful clues—or none, depending on the words involved. In the final hurdle, every correct answer from the earlier rounds is displayed, with correct and misplaced letters clearly identified. However, the number of times a letter is highlighted in previous guesses does not necessarily show how many times that letter appears in the final answer.
Why This Matters
Hurdle’s linked-round format makes each answer relevant beyond its individual puzzle. Players can use solved words and letter feedback to narrow down later answers, while still needing to interpret each new clue independently. For readers who enjoy daily word games such as Wordle, Hurdle offers a related routine with multiple connected stages.
