The beloved web-based puzzle game Wordle has been transformed into a physical board game by toy manufacturer Hasbro.

This adds a social element to the web-based word game, letting gamers share their victories or defeats after playing. The game's success has spawned many Wordle clones like the multiplayer WeWordle, which lets two players compete to find the solution first.
