If you love playing everyday word games like Wordle, Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.
There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced and incorrect letters appearing on each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it will take you to the next obstacle, with the answer to the last obstacle presented as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final obstacle, each correct answer from the previous obstacles is displayed, with the correct and incorrect letters clearly shown.
An important note is that the number of times a letter has been highlighted from previous guesses does not necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears at the final hurdle.
If you find yourself stuck on any step of today’s obstacle, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered.
