Squardle

About Squardle

Squardle is a free browser game by FubarGames.se, running since 2022. Every day there is a new Daily Squardle, the same board for everyone and numbered from the game's start, and there is also a Weekly Squardle along with freeplay, speedrun and larger XL and XXL modes.

The board is a 5x5 grid holding six five-letter words: three across and three down, crossing each other. You guess a word in any row or column. Green means the letter is in the right square and stays solved. Yellow, red and orange mean the letter is not in that square but is in the same row, the same column or both, shown with arrows. White means it is elsewhere on the board, and black means it is not on the board at all.

You start with ten guesses and can earn up to five bonus guesses by solving words; solving the sixth word wins. Because every hint is about position on the grid rather than in a single word, reading where letters can and cannot go is the core of the game.

It suits Wordle players who want something meatier, and fans of logic grids who enjoy keeping track of many constraints at once.

How to play Squardle

1. Open Squardle to get today's daily board.
2. Pick a row or column and type a five-letter guess.
3. Read the hints: green is right, yellow, red and orange point along the row or column, white is elsewhere, black is not on the board.
4. Solve words to earn bonus guesses on top of your starting ten.
5. Solve all six words before your guesses run out.

Tips

• Guess in the middle row and column early, since they cross every other word.
• Black letters are out of the whole board, so rule them out everywhere.
• Use the arrow hints to place a letter in the crossing word, not just the one you guessed.
