The New York Times acquired Wordle in February 2022, and it is now a part of the website's extensive collection of word games. Word-based games have been a part of the New York Times for a very long time now. The newspaper first added the Crossword to its game section, all the way back in 1942.
The game was perfect for citizens of the war-stricken country who could use light games to brighten their day. Over time, the news outlet evolved and now players can solve the Crossword on the news portal's website, with different difficulty levels.
The game celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2017, and anyone who knows about the history of the Wordle knows how the game played an important part in its creation.
Players can hop on to the news website every day to try and solve the game. Many of them go out searching for clues on the internet to make sure they don't lose their winning streak.
This is why we make sure to post hints and clues for the answer every day.
Warning: Spoilers for today's solution ahead.

Players can finally breathe a sigh of relief after having back-to-back difficult words last weekend. But the game seems to have eased up a little as both yesterday and today's words can be considered easy. Were you able to guess the word? If not, then keep reading because the answer is in the next sentence. The solution for March 29 is "shall."
Shall is the future tense of should and sometimes, would. When used in a sentence, the word looks something like this: I shall take a day off tomorrow.
The New York Times website started publishing a new crossword daily in 2008, calling the section Wordplay. Over time, the section was introduced with more word games like Spelling Bee, Letterhead and more recently, Wordle.
This led to the website deciding to change the name of the section in mid-February 2022, and reintroducing it as Gameplay. The separate section now includes all the puzzles and games the website has to offer to its readers.
With the addition of the section on the website, the forum also made changes to its Twitter handle, changing it from @NYTimesWordplay to @NYTGames. The account posts stories and news related to the games from the website.
