The 'WORDLE' Game

The 'Wordle' game. Players have six attempts to guess a five-letter word. After each guess, the player is informed which letters in their guess are either: anywhere in the word; in the right position in the word. This can be used to inform the next guess. Can be played interactively in the console, or programmatically. Based on Josh Wardle's game < https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/>.

wordler

An R implementation of the popular WORDLE game.

Gameplay

To start a game, run the following R code in an interactive session.

library(wordler)
play_wordler()

The introductory instructions are displayed.

You must then attempt to correctly guess a five-letter word in (at most) six attempts.

After each guess, the letters are coloured to indicate how well the guess matches the target word.

Green letters are in the word and in the right position (but may be repeated elsewhere). Yellow letters are present (at least once) somewhere in the target word.

Each guess must be a valid word.

Installation

You can install directly from github using the devtools R package.
