A Flutter implementation of the popular word game Wordle with two updates:
- Use 6 letters instead of 5.
- For letters found in other positions in the word, add Directional arrows (← or →) which point towards where those letters are.
I play the regular Wordle super often, but found myself having a couple of things happen:
- I'd keep coming up with 6 letter words instead of the usual 5 in the regular Wordle game.
- I'd get lots of yellow letters but sometimes draw a complete blank on what the word could be.
WOR6LE is a word guessing game about guessing the correct 6-letter word.
Use your keyboard or click or tap the on-screen keys to enter letters, then enter to submit your guess.
After your guess, color feedback will be provided for each letter:
| Color | What it means |
|---|---|
| 🟩 Green | Letter is correct and in the right spot |
| 🟨 Yellow | Letter is in the word but wrong spot (arrow shows direction) |
| ⬜ Gray | Letter is not in the word |
The colors provide clues to help you narrow down the possibilities for the correct word.
🟩 W A L N U T
W is in the word and in the correct spot.
I N 🟨 D ← I G O
D is in the word but in the wrong spot. The arrow ← shows it belongs to the left.
A R G U E S
U is not in the word in any spot.
F I 🟩 L → T E R
L is correct, but appears twice. The arrow → points to the other L.
