Wordle is a simple online game that offers players six chances to guess a five-letter word and provides feedback in the form of color-coded clues if they correctly predict one of the letters.

Quordle, on the other hand, builds on Wordle’s basic principle, with the exception that four five-letter words must be guessed at the same time, with nine attempts.

The tiles change color to show which guesses are correct and whether a letter is included in the word, but in a different location for each of the four words, the report said.
