Wordly: Daily Word Puzzle on Google Play WordDaily: Guess the Word on the App Store

Wordly is a Wordle-style word game for Android and iPhone from Roghan Games. Each day brings a new hidden word for every length from four to seven letters, solved in six guesses from coloured letter clues. A leaderboard, a daily streak, a race mode and thousands of numbered levels keep you playing after the daily words are done.

About Wordly: Daily Word Puzzle (Roghan Games)

Wordly: Daily Word Puzzle is a word guessing app made by Roghan Games, a small Brazilian studio that also makes Hangman, Connections and Sudoku apps. On Android it is called Wordly; the same game is on the App Store as WordDaily: Guess the Word.

The rules follow Wordle. You type a guess, press Submit, and each letter turns green if it is in the right place, yellow if it is in the word but somewhere else, or grey if it is not in the word at all. You have six tries to find the word.

The Daily Challenge gives one new word a day in each of the four word lengths, so a full day is four puzzles: a quick four-letter word, the classic five, and longer six and seven-letter words that need more planning. Results go onto a global leaderboard, and a streak counts the days in a row you finish. A recent update arranged the levels like a calendar, with the day's word as today's level, and added a free daily wheel that gives gems.

Beyond the daily words there are thousands of numbered levels in chapters for every length, and a Race mode that asks how many words you can solve one after another. Gems pay for two helpers on the board: one reveals a letter, the other hides three letters that are not in the word.

The app is free with ads and in-app purchases; an optional monthly Premium subscription removes ads and adds gems. It suits Wordle players who want more than one word a day and a choice of word lengths on their phone.

How to play Wordly: Daily Word Puzzle (Roghan Games)

Open the Daily Challenge and pick a word length: 4, 5, 6 or 7 letters.
Type a real word of that length on the keyboard and press Submit.
Read the colours: green is the right letter in the right place, yellow is in the word but in another place, grey is not in the word.
Use what the colours tell you for the next guess, and find the word within six tries.
Play the other lengths to finish the day, then check your place on the leaderboard.

Tips

Start the longer words with a guess full of common vowels and consonants such as E, A, R, S and T.
Save gems for the hide-three-letters helper on seven-letter words, where ruling out letters saves the most guesses.
Do the four-letter word first as a warm-up; it is the quickest to solve.
