Wordle is a type of web based word game that can be played on the nytimes.com website and was made by and developed by a Welsh Software engineer called Josh Wardle.

When playing the Wordle game the player or players have 6 attempts to guess a 5 letter word.

And the player of Wordle gets feedback through colored tiles which indicate the correct letters and their placement.

The rules for Wordle and how to play Wordle include.

Each guess must be a valid five-letter word.
The color of a tile will change to show you how close your guess was.
If the tile turns green, the letter is in the word, and it is in the correct spot.
If the tile turns yellow, the letter is in the word, but it is not in the correct spot.

The best first word to use in Wordle is Tales.

Using the word "Tales" leads to success in over 95% of games with an average game length of 3.66 rounds.

For a two seed word strategy with Wordle you can start with 'cones' and follow with 'trial'.

They lead to success for just over 96% of target words with an average game length of 3.68 rounds.

Wordle is a browser-based video game purchased by the New York Times.
