Octordle is a Wordle spinoff game in which players must try to guess eight words at once.
It is hosted by Britannica.
The rules are very much the same as for Wordle.
Octordle Rules
- The player has a certain number of guesses to determine the eight hidden words. The number of guesses depends on which Quordle game is being played.
- After each guess, letters are highlighted in different colours on each of the eight grids:
- Green: The letter is in the correct position.
- Yellow: The letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
- Grey: The letter is not in the word at all.
- Words with duplicated letters are allowed.
- Simple plurals are valid word guesses but will never be a solution.
- If a player guesses a word containing just one letter which is repeated in the solution word, Octordle will not show that letter as being repeated.
- However, if a player guesses a word with a repeated letter, but the solution word only has one of that letter, Octordle will highlight just one of the letters in the appropriate colour.
Octordle Variants
Octordle Game Modes
Octordle has three daily games, all of which can be played for free. They are simply variants of each other and determine how many guesses are available. The solution words are different for each puzzle, so all can be played each day:
- Classic: The original daily Octordle with 13 guesses.
- Chill: Relax with 16 guesses and fewer unusual words.
- Extreme: Challenge yourself with only 12 guesses and more unusual words.
Octordle Sequence Game
Sequence is similar to the original Octordle game with the following changes.
- Only one unsolved word is visible at a time. Once you solve a word, the next board is unlocked.
- 13 guesses are allowed.
Octordle Rescue Game
The puzzle begins with starter words already in place. The other rules remain the same.
