Find a new way to tackle your daily Wordle with our tactical tips, or read the January 17 (1308) hint if you'd like some idea on where to point your guesses without spoiling all the fun.
If you're still stuck, you could take a peek at today's answer so you can jump straight to the best bit. It's your puzzle, so why not play it your way?
We just want to make sure you find all five green letters. Normally I'd be happy to find a green letter or two in my first few guesses, but these weren't especially helpful ones, and no clear solution came to mind.
There were just too many other letters of the alphabet still in play to really narrow it down. So I went on a bit of an expedition with my next row, trying to if not find more letters at least reduce my options.
By some miracle, this revealed every single letter I'd been looking for, and today's answer easily fell in place the row after.
