Play Wordle Duel online

Wordle Duel is a five-letter guessing game where each submitted word gives clues about the answer. A letter can be correct, present in another position, or absent. I built the duel around a shared secret word, so both players work from the same problem while making their own choices.

How to play

  1. Open Wordle Duel and choose solo, online play or a same-phone duel.
  2. Enter a valid five-letter word as your opening guess.
  3. Read the feedback for each letter, separating correct positions from letters that need moving.
  4. Build another guess that uses what you have learned, including any repeated letters.
  5. Solve within six guesses. In a duel, compare the result with your opponent.

Modes and a useful starting point

Available modes: solo play, online with a friend, versus play, same-phone play. A daily puzzle is available too.

Fewer guesses decide an online duel before active time breaks a tie. Same-phone play gives both people a turn on the same word and compares guesses used. Try an opening that tests several different letters, then narrow your choices using the clues already on the board rather than discarding a useful result.
