Since its release in 2021, Wordle has become a central part of the world's morning routine. Blending the ingenuity of Scrabble with the potluck of Battleship, it takes only a few short minutes of your day to complete, all the while challenging your vocabulary and mental fortitude. It's a morning ritual for millions of people - more people, in fact, than those who read the Times
Each day, you’re presented with a brand new five-letter word that you must guess correctly in six attempts or less. This simple premise quickly became a viral hit and has continued to convert legions of smartphone users into daily gamers, many of whom collectively share their daily progress on social media.
But is it the end of the road for the viral puzzler? Alert the masses, as Wordle has dared to do the unthinkable – by repeating a previous answer. Has the game finally run out of words?
In a statement published in the site’s Gameplay newsletter, the NYT revealed that moving forward, they may start reusing previous solutions, in a move that made headlines around the world. It reads:
"Hey, Wordlers! We have some exciting news to share. Starting on Monday, we will begin adding previously run words back into play. There are still many first-time answers to debut, but also more chances for Wordle in ones and those magical, serendipitous moments when Wordle overlaps with real life. Happy solving!"
