Despite getting the word right in just three goes, Jonathan tweeted: “It took me way to long to think of this word”.

Another user said today’s game “stressed me tf out”, and shared their result after guessing the word right on the 5th go.

A different player attributed their win to a quick internet search for potential words. 

“Successfully completed todays Wordle,” they said.

“Had to Google potential answers tho,” they admitted.

Margaret added of the game: “I hate it when you have two word options and you pick the wrong one!”

Another found today’s word, which was ‘Hoard’, exhausting to de-code: “I will take the rest of the day off,” they wrote on Twitter.

The latest Wordle reaction comes as the game was recently taken over by The New York Times after the original creator, Josh Wardle, sold the game for a currently unknown seven-figure amount.

The aim of the word game is to try and guess a five-letter word in under six tries.
