Quordle #95 answers for today: Friday, April 29

Quordle is four times trickier than the popular word game, Wordle.

After Wordle exploded online last October, it soon became obvious that the game was going to inspire a slew of spinoffs. Creator Josh Wardle probably never imagined how impactful his game was going to be in the months to come.

People all across the world took to Wordle enthusiastically, which opened the doors for several spinoffs. Heardle, Actorle, Crosswordle, and Lewdle are just a few that proved to be popular with fans who wanted to branch out.

However, if you are someone who does not want to deviate from the original game but are looking for a more challenging alternative, you will enjoy Quordle. The game asks you to guess four five-lettered words simultaneously in nine or less chances. There are four grids on the screen. Each choice you make will reflect in all of the grids, and one of your nine chances will be gone.

All the other rules of th game are similar to Wordle. For each guess, correct letters in the correct positions will turn the tile green, correct letters in the wrong positions will turn the tile yellow and the tile will turn gray if the letter does not feature in any of the four words.

You can play the daily version only once a day, but there are extra practice games available.
