Another Day, Another Wordle, with this page explaining the Wordle answer for today, July 28.

For the uninitiated, the goal of Wordle is to find a daily five-letter word in six guesses. The fewer guesses, the better – and if you fail to guess at all, you’ll break your streak.

The latter is why working today’s wordle answer is such a priority, as players take pride in continuing their streak. So why bet on a risky final guess when you can learn a few clues and, failing that, get the definitive answer? This page can help you do that.

A lot has happened with Wordle since its whirlwind arrival in October 2021, which saw millions of gamers register every day in just a few months.

App stores were quickly flooded with clones to capitalize on its popularity. Elsewhere, a developer who had a game of the same name available donated his windfall to charity after players confused it for the five-letter guessing game, Wordle (modern) creator Dan Wardle told calling it a “class act” in response.

The most notable development in Wordle’s short history is its purchase by The New York Times for an undisclosed seven-figure sum, tucking the game into the newspaper’s online gaming umbrella.

Today, Wordle remains free and the game itself remains unchanged, but there have been some minor developments behind the scenes.

During the initial migration, sequences were reset for some players and rude words were removed from the dictionary, which resulted in a change in the wordlist, which gave some players a different word. The New York Times has also since shut down an “unauthorized” archive site of old Wordle puzzles.
