Games Like Wordle: 15 Free Daily Guessing Games (2026)
Updated Oct 23, 2026 · 15 games · official links only
Wordle gives everyone the same hidden five-letter word each day and six tries to find it, with each letter turning green, yellow or gray after a guess. This list picks games that keep that colored-tile feedback: first the multi-board versions that play several Wordles at once, then games that change what you guess, such as a phrase, an equation, a prime number, a hex color or a footballer's surname.

Quordle
Four Wordle boards side by side, with every guess entered on all four and nine tries to solve them all. Unlike Wordle, there are extra modes, including one where the boards unlock one at a time.
Dordle
The original two-board variant: each guess goes on both boards, each with its own green, yellow and gray feedback, and you get seven tries. A free-play mode gives unlimited extra rounds.
Phrazle
Wordle for whole phrases: six tries to guess a common saying, with the word lengths shown. It adds a purple color for letters that appear in a different word of the phrase.
Octordle
Eight boards at once and thirteen guesses, so your opening words are about collecting letters rather than solving. There is a practice mode for extra games beyond the daily set.
Xordle
Two secret words that share no letters, shown on a single board, so every green or yellow tile belongs to just one of them. The pair usually shares a theme, hinted at by a free starting word.
Sedecordle
Wordle at its largest: sixteen boards, every guess played on all of them, and twenty-one tries to find all sixteen words. Practice modes include one where you solve the boards in order.
Waffle
Uses Wordle's green and yellow hints, but every letter is already on the board: you swap tiles to fix six interlocking words within fifteen swaps, and past waffles are in an archive.
Nerdle
The math version: find a hidden eight-character equation in six tries, where every guess must be a valid equation and tiles show which digits and signs are placed right.
Crosswordle
Wordle in reverse: you are given the answer and a finished grid of colored tiles, and you fill in real words that would produce exactly those colors. It plays more like a logic puzzle.
Searchle
Wordle-style letter colors applied to a real search: you see the start of a query and guess the word Google autocomplete uses to finish it.
Mathler
You know the target number and have six tries to find the one hidden equation that makes it, with green, yellow and gray tiles. Four difficulty levels change the equation length.
Primel
Swaps the hidden word for a hidden five-digit prime: six guesses, Wordle-style colors, and every guess must itself be a prime number.
Hexcodle
Guess the six-character hex code of the day's color in five tries. Instead of green and yellow, each digit tells you whether to go up or down and whether you are close or far.
Missing 11
A soccer memory test played as eleven small Wordles: name every starter from a classic match, spelling each surname with green, yellow and gray letters and six tries per player.
Squirdle
A fan-made Pokémon take on Wordle: guess the daily Pokémon in nine tries, with feedback on generation, types, height and weight rather than letters.
FAQ
What is the best game like Wordle?
Quordle is the most popular close match: the same five-letter guessing with colored feedback, played on four boards at once. Dordle is a gentler two-board version, and Phrazle keeps a single board but hides a whole phrase.
Is there a game like Wordle with unlimited play?
Yes. Dordle, Quordle, Octordle, Sedecordle, Xordle, Phrazle, Crosswordle, Mathler and Squirdle all offer play beyond the daily puzzle. Wordle itself is one word a day.
Is there an official Wordle unlimited?
No. Wordle is one word a day with no unlimited mode and no archive of past puzzles. For extra rounds of the same kind of guessing, use the free-play or practice modes in Dordle, Quordle or Octordle.
