As the new Heardle challenge drops, fans on social media gather around to discuss their answers and find out if they’ve managed to maintain their successful winning streak in the game.
Heardle can be quite addictive even for non-music enthusiasts, as the game can be extremely entertaining and engaging whilst acting as a platform for discovering new music and artists you’ve never come across before.
Fans of the iconic word puzzle, Wordle, might be familiar with the game’s rules: it requires players to listen to the starting bits of a popular song’s intro, and then figure out the title and artist as quickly as possible without using up too many of the available six attempts.
Each failed attempt will lead to the length of the song increasing, making it easier to solve the puzzle. To make the game more interesting and exciting, get a friend or a family member to sit with you and find out who guesses the track correctly first.
