WoWdle

About WoWdle

WoWdle is a Wordle-style browser game for World of Warcraft players. It is an unofficial fan project; the site credits Wowhead for its game assets and sounds, and its maker also links to another game of theirs, Mythmix.

The Classic mode asks you to guess the day's character in six tries. Each guess fills a row comparing your pick with the answer on name, expansion, gender, race, zone and class: green for a match, yellow for a partial match and red for a miss. After a few guesses an audio hint (a voice line) unlocks, and later an image hint. The Character mode works from a picture, and the Zones mode shows a screenshot of the mystery place.

Daily Trivia gives five multiple-choice questions on lore and the game, with the day's average score to compare against. Each mode shows how many people have played today and the success rate, and a timer counts down to the next reset. The Timewalking page lists earlier numbered puzzles by date so you can replay them.

It suits World of Warcraft players who know their characters and maps, from Classic to recent expansions. Signing in is optional and adds personal stats.

How to play WoWdle

1. Open wowdle.app and pick a mode: Classic, Character, Zones or Daily Trivia.
2. In Classic, type a World of Warcraft character's name and submit it.
3. Read the coloured tiles for expansion, gender, race, zone and class, then refine your next guess.
4. Use the audio and image hints when they unlock, and find the character within six tries.
5. Play the other modes, then open Timewalking to replay earlier days.

Tips

• Lock down the expansion and zone first; they narrow the list of characters faster than race or class.
• Yellow means a partial match on fields with more than one value, such as a mixed race, so keep that part.
• In Zones, look at the sky, architecture and plants to guess the continent before naming the zone.
