How To Play Octordle?

If you’re new to the game, here’s a quick guide. Unlike Wordle, where you guess a single word in six tries, Octordle challenges you to solve eight separate five-letter words within 13 guesses. Every guess counts for all eight boards at the same time, so strategy matters.

The game also includes color-coded hints that can be of help:

• 🟩 Green: Correct letter in the correct spot
• 🟧 Orange: Correct letter, wrong position
• ⬜ Gray: Letter not in the word at all

For a strong start, open with words that include multiple vowels and common consonants. Use the feedback to narrow your guesses and cross-reference letters across all eight grids.
