The Accher board: the title اَچَھر above an empty grid of five-letter rows, with help, statistics and share icons

Accher is a free Wordle-style game in the Kashmiri language, written in its Perso-Arabic script. Everyone gets the same hidden word each day, and each guess colours the letters to show which are right, misplaced or absent. A new word arrives at midnight India time.

About Accher (اَچَھر)

Accher (اَچَھر, Kashmiri for letter) brings the Wordle format to Kashmiri. The board is a grid of five-letter rows, and the on-screen keyboard carries the Kashmiri alphabet in Perso-Arabic script, including letters such as ۄ, ۆ, ؠ and ۍ that Urdu does not use. You type a word, and the tiles change colour to show which letters are in the word and in the right place, which are in the word elsewhere, and which are not in it.

There is one word a day, the same for everyone, numbered by the game's server. When you finish, the game shows today's word, your guess distribution and a countdown to the next word, which comes at midnight India Standard Time, 18:30 UTC. Results can be shared as a grid.

Accher was made by Haider Ali Punjabi and links to Wordles of the World, a directory of Wordle versions in many languages. It is free, plays in the browser and needs no account.
