Jeffgoldblumle at phone size: the guess QUESTIONABLE in the first of three rows of twelve tiles, its letters marked yellow and grey, above the coloured keyboard

Jeffgoldblumle is a tongue-in-cheek Wordle clone. You have three tries to guess a 12-letter word, and the game tells you openly that nine days out of ten the answer is JEFFGOLDBLUM; on the other days it is some other 12-letter word, and the real puzzle begins.

About Jeffgoldblumle

Jeffgoldblumle is a small fan-made daily word game built as a gag on Wordle and on the actor Jeff Goldblum. Its about page says it aims to be a fun, free and slightly absurd addition to a morning routine; the site states it is not associated with the actor himself.

The board is three rows of twelve tiles. You type a guess and the tiles turn green for a right letter in the right place and yellow for a right letter in the wrong place, as in Wordle. You get three tries. The game tells you up front that the answer is Jeff Goldblum nine days out of ten; on the other days it is some other 12-letter word, such as PHOTOGRAPHER or TRIGONOMETRY, which is where the real puzzle is.

There is one answer per day for everyone, picked by counting the days since 20 April 2022, and a countdown in the stats panel shows when the next word arrives at your local midnight. Stats track your streak and guess distribution, and Share copies your result.

The game is free and needs no account. Ads run below the board, including a grid of sponsored links, and 5 dollars a year removes them; the ad-free pass can be carried to another device with an emailed sign-in link. It suits anyone who wants a one-minute joke with their morning word games, and the odd non-Goldblum day as a real twelve-letter puzzle.

How to play Jeffgoldblumle

  1. Open Jeffgoldblumle; the board is three rows of twelve tiles.
  2. Type a 12-letter guess with the on-screen or your own keyboard and press Enter.
  3. Read the colours: green is the right letter in the right spot, yellow is in the word but elsewhere.
  4. Use your three tries to find the day's word, then check your streak in the stats.
