CrosswordleDaily Reverse Wordle: Rebuild the Guesses from the Colors
Crosswordle turns Wordle around: you are given the final answer and a finished grid of green, yellow and gray tiles, but the guesses are missing. You fill in real words that would produce exactly those colors, which plays like a mix of Wordle and Sudoku. It's free to play in your browser, with one puzzle a day, plus unlimited and no account needed. There is also an unlimited mode, so you can keep playing after the daily puzzle.

How to play Crosswordle
- Look at the answer word at the bottom and the colored grid above it.
- Fill each row with a real five-letter word whose letters would give exactly those colors against the answer.
- Green tiles must match the answer letter; yellow tiles must be in the answer but elsewhere; gray tiles must not be in it.
- Complete every row to solve the puzzle. Play Unlimited or build your own in the Builder.
Tips
- Fill in the green letters first; they are given by the answer word.
- Remember that gray letters can not appear anywhere in the answer, which rules out many words.
- Count yellows carefully when a letter repeats; Wordle colors only as many copies as the answer contains.
We never post the answer to today's puzzle.
