For fans of daily word games, Hurdle presents a compelling and unique five-round challenge. The game begins like many popular word puzzles, with players attempting to guess a five-letter word based on feedback about correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters.
Successfully solving the first word unlocks the next hurdle. In a strategic twist, the previous correct answer is automatically used as the first guess for the new puzzle, which can provide several immediate clues or none at all. This process repeats through four rounds.
The final hurdle requires players to solve one last word using all the correctly placed and misplaced letters from the previous four answers as their guide. It is important to note that the frequency of a highlighted letter across the previous rounds does not necessarily indicate how many times that letter appears in the final solution.
