Now there’s a Wordle for Lord Of The Rings fans
Lordle Of The Rings is exactly what you think it is: a Tolkien themed version of the popular puzzle game.
Not only is Wordle a smash hit, but the now New York Times owned puzzle game has spawned a host of copycats and many of those, such as Nerdle and Worldle, are also major hits in their own right.
People have even begun making versions that focus on specific media franchises, such as Pokémon and Lordle Of The Rings. In case it wasn’t obvious, this one is themed after the long-running fantasy franchise Willow… just kidding, it’s Lord Of The Rings.
The game is fundamentally no different to original Wordle: you need to guess the five-letter word in six goes or less, with the game telling you which of your letters are correct guesses.
The main difference is that, as the rules at the bottom say, the only possible words are ones that feature in the main text of The Lord Of The Rings.

This includes names as well, so words like Frodo and Gimli, which would never appear in original Wordle, are fair game. Although this doesn’t mean regular words are excluded.

Interestingly enough, the game was built using Vue Wordle, an open source JavaScript framework that someone else has put together for fun. Basically, with the right know-how, anyone can theoretically use this to create their own version of Wordle.
