In the world of online word games, Dordle has emerged as a captivating challenge for puzzle lovers. Created by developer Zach Gage, Dordle is a variant of the immensely popular game Wordle, but with a twist: instead of guessing one word, players must guess two words at the same time.
How to Play Dordle
Dordle gives players seven tries to guess two five-letter words. Every guess must be a real five-letter word, and after each guess, the game provides feedback via color-coded tiles:
Green: the letter is correct and in the right position.
Yellow: the letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
Gray: the letter is not in the word at all.
What makes Dordle tricky is that the guess applies to both words simultaneously. That means a single word you enter will provide feedback for two puzzles at once—the left and right sides of the game board.
Strategy Tips
Start with a strong first word like “SLATE” or “CRANE” to cover common letters.
Try to balance your guesses to explore possible letters in both words, not just one.
Use words with uncommon letters (like “JUMPY” or “VEXED”) once you’ve narrowed down possibilities.
