A new day means another opportunity for Heardle fans from around the world to maintain their winning streak in the game. Music lovers with a wide range of tastes can play this game and test their knowledge of pop music whilst also getting a chance to explore new music and the works of artists they’ve never heard of before.

It was released in early 2022 as a respectful homage to the massively popular word puzzle, Wordle. Both games are similar in terms of the overall concept and rules. The game continues to attract a number of music lovers across the globe.

Every day, Heardle puts out the intro of a popular song, asking players to guess its title and artist. Similar to Wordle, a total of six chances are given, but every wasted chance increases the length of the track, making it easier to identify the song and the artist.
