Rushle
Every guess is played against 26 hidden words at once, and you may miss only ten times.
Every day: One board of 26 hidden words a day, the same for every player and numbered from the game's start, with a daily leaderboard and an archive of past boards. Weekday boards use five-letter words; Saturdays use four-letter words and Sundays six. New puzzle: Midnight in the player's own time zone.
Rushle hides 26 words on one board and checks each guess against all of them. Letters only show where they sit in exactly the same spot in a hidden word, a guess that clears no word costs a miss, and ten misses end the game. A new board comes each day, the same for everyone.
About Rushle
Rushle is a daily word game built around one big board: 26 hidden words, laid out in two columns, and a budget of ten misses. Every word you type is tested against all 26 at once. A letter is revealed only where it matches the exact position in a hidden word; there are no yellow, wrong-place hints as in Wordle.
When all the letters of a hidden word have been revealed, that word clears, and its letters count toward the other words on the board. That is the cascade in the name: one well chosen guess can finish several words in one go. A guess that clears nothing costs one of your ten misses, even if it uncovers letters.
The daily board is the same for everyone and is numbered, with a leaderboard for the day and boards you can set up for a group of friends. Weekdays use five-letter words, Saturday boards use four letters and Sunday boards six. Past boards sit in an archive.
Beyond the daily there is Rush Mode, three minutes to clear as many words as you can over a run of boards, where a miss costs five seconds instead of ending the game, and a maker for your own 26-word boards. Results and replays can be shared without giving the answers away. It suits Wordle players who want something longer and more tactical than six guesses at one word.
How to play Rushle
- Open Rushle to get the day's board of 26 hidden words.
- Type a word of the day's length; it is checked against every hidden word at once.
- Letters appear only where they are in exactly the same position in a hidden word.
- A hidden word clears when all its letters are found, and cleared letters help the words around it.
- A guess that clears no word costs a miss; clear the board before your tenth miss.
Tips
- Early on, use words with common letters in common positions to light up many rows at once.
- Before guessing, look for rows that are one or two letters from done: a guess that finishes them is free.
- Save risky guesses for when several rows share a missing letter in the same position.
- On Saturdays and Sundays check the word length first: the weekend boards use four and six letters.
