on horrordle.app
Horrordle is a daily word game for horror fans from Living Dead Co. You guess a five-letter word in six tries with Wordle-style colour clues; when the game ends it reveals the horror film the word comes from, with a one-line teaser.
About Horrordle
Horrordle describes itself as like that other word game, but a bit creepier. Each day brings one new five-letter word for all players, picked with a horror film in mind.
You type guesses on the on-screen keyboard and the tiles show which letters are right and in place, in the word but elsewhere, or absent, all dressed in blood-spattered artwork. After the last guess the game tells you the word and the film it belongs to, for example TRICK as in Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982), along with a short line about the film, so each day doubles as a horror recommendation.
Stats track your results, there is an optional account, and the game is published by Living Dead Co.
It suits horror fans and Wordle players looking for a themed variant.
How to play Horrordle
- Type a five-letter word and press Enter.
- Read the tile colours: right letter in the right place, right letter elsewhere, or not in the word.
- Narrow down the word within six tries.
- See the horror film behind the word and share your result.
