Another fun one to try is contexto.me. You guess a word, and an AI gives a score on how close it deems you are to the word.
It’s a bummer today of all days; I could really use any distraction. But you don’t cross a picket line, power to the striking workers.
A plug for the other lovely daily games: [email protected]
And for my favorite one: https://travle.earth/
My friends and I are all giving up our streaks. One is over 650. We don’t cross picket lines.
Play the Britannica Octordle instead? https://www.britannica.com/games/octordle/
I tried to play this but no idea how it works. I tried the daily and I wrote a word that gave me all colored letters and didn’t let me keep writing. Did I guess the word? No idea…
I saw someone share this earlier today also as another option!
Periodic reminder in light of the #nyt strike that #wordle started life as a free, vanilla javascript website with no DRM and not owned by the nyt, and I packed it into a single html file that you can download and run offline or from any site, like this: https://jon-e.net/wordle.html

If anyone has an alternative for the connections game I really liked that one :)
Connections shits me. I hate how they will put in clear connections but you’re aiming for more obscure ones.
Strands and the Mini is where it’s at.
I played so much wordle, I own the app and everything but I lost interest in it
Lol, I definitely found that rough at first, but it’s at least the kind of word puzzle I’m good at, I suck ASS at wordle 😅
Wordle gets a lot easier with some strategic opening word choices. The basic strategy is to pick words eliminating RSTLNE early (the “wheel of fortune” strategy), as those are the most commonly used letters.
There’s also a more specific strategy aiming to win on the 3rd guess by maximizing common letters and placements using two predetermined opening guesses. “Clint” and “soare” were found to be the most optimal, but any combo on that list would be a very good pick.
This site has an archive of all the NYT Connections games:
Thank you!
Thank you!
https://redactle.net/ is a fun one
As long as they don’t ask me to break my Duolingo streak it’s all good. I‘m scared of that owl
