Wordle Clone Hurdle Gives Players Five Puzzles to Solve Per Day
Arkadium launched Hurdle, a new Wordle clone that gives players five puzzles to solve per day instead of one. Wordle captured the attention of 45 million daily users at the height of its popularity and the cultural phenomenon’s influence still hasn’t waned much. After a few months, Wordle continues to be a part of people’s daily lives, occasionally trending on Twitter when challenging words pop up. The word game’s simplistic game design, viral sharing mechanic, and consistent communal challenge have marked Wordle as Twitter’s second most popular game of 2022, resting just behind popular MMO, Genshin Impact.
As Wordle continues to garner attention, some game developers have attempted to mimic a fraction of its popularity by creating so-called clones. These games share Wordle’s basic principle and design, tasking players with solving some kind of puzzle within a limited amount of guesses. Many Wordle clones offer a unique variation on the game, too, such as adopting a specific theme, like Fortle, which tests years of Fortnite updates. Other clones have done more to change the game, altering the format of Wordle from a text-based word guessing game to something more auditory or visual. For example, Heardle tests a player's knowledge of iconic soundtracks from fighting video games, presenting music from a given IP. Moviedle, a Wordle clone for movie buffs, has become popular in its own right, testing knowledge with clips from a film rather than words or pictures.
